Playa de la Fuente, Coastal beach in San Vicente de la Barquera, Spain.
The 150-meter stretch of La Fuente Beach features fine golden sand bordered by steep cliffs and faces strong waves from the Cantabrian Sea.
The beach stands near San Vicente de la Barquera, a medieval fishing settlement that developed into a maritime center during the 13th century.
Local fishermen maintain traditional fishing practices along this coastline, contributing to the regional gastronomy of Cantabria with fresh seafood catches.
The beach offers both pedestrian and vehicle access via the CN-634 road, with a parking area accommodating up to 50 cars near the shore.
During low tide, the beach reveals natural rock formations and small pools where visitors can observe local marine species.
