Praia de Carril, White sand beach in Alcabre, Spain.

The 600-meter-long white sand shore extends between Punta Madornilla and Punta de Alcabre, featuring moderate waves facing O Morrazo peninsula.

Located near the former Santa Baia church of Alcabre, this beach witnessed the construction of a larger church structure at the end of the century.

The beach maintains strong connections to Galician maritime traditions, with regular seafood festivals and fishing activities throughout the year.

The beach provides non-paved parking spaces, public facilities, and multiple access points through local transportation from central Vigo.

Four adjacent northern-oriented beaches - Santa Baia, O Cocho, A Fontoura, and Praira de Carril - create a sequence of coastal recreational spaces.
