Playa de La Espasa, Coastal beach in Caravia Baja, Spain
Playa de La Espasa stretches for several hundred meters along the Asturian coast with fine golden sand. At low tide it connects with the neighboring beaches of El Visu and Moracey, creating a longer stretch of sand.
This beach area contains fossils and traces from the Jurassic period now preserved in the local museum. The location is an important site for understanding the ancient geological history of this coastal region.
The nearby Santiago de Gobiendes Church shows how the local community keeps its religious traditions alive. This beach serves as a gathering place where residents and visitors experience the rhythm of coastal life.
Lifeguards are present daily from noon until early evening to monitor water safety. The beach offers good accessibility with ramps, adapted bathrooms, and parking spaces for all visitors.
The beach marks the boundary between two municipalities with the Espasa River forming a natural dividing line. This geographical detail makes it an interesting spot for those curious about local administrative borders.
