Playa de Galizano, Sandy beach in Ribamontán al Mar, Spain

The golden sand beach stretches for 150 meters along the Cantabrian coast, bordered by mountain landscapes and natural vegetation near the sea.

The beach formed at the mouth of an ancient river delta, creating a natural harbor that served local fishing communities for generations.

Local fishermen maintain traditional fishing practices at Galizano Beach, using small boats and nets to catch seasonal fish species.

Visitors can access the beach via the CA-440 motorway, with parking available for 50 to 100 vehicles and basic amenities including footwashes.

The beach experiences strong wave patterns due to its specific coastal orientation, making it a preferred location for experienced swimmers.
