Playa de Porcía, Protected beach in El Franco, Spain

The triangular-shaped beach sits at the mouth of the Porcía River, featuring golden sands and clear waters along the Asturian coast.

The beach area contains remnants of an old iron ore pier and multiple mooring points carved into the rocks from past maritime activities.

The beach marks the natural boundary between the municipalities of El Franco and Tapia de Casariego, reflecting local administrative divisions.

Access to the beach is available through the towns of Campos and Salave from Tapia de Casariego, or through Valdepares from El Franco.

The Boy islets near the beach create a distinctive coastal formation where the Porcía River forms meanders before meeting the sea.
