Playa de la Griega, Natural beach in Colunga, Spain

The 800-meter delta-shaped beach features golden sand shores bordered by tall cliffs and connects to the mouth of Libardón River.

The beach contains several sauropod dinosaur footprints measuring 125 centimeters in diameter, dating back millions of years in this region.

Local fishermen maintain traditional fishing practices near the beach, contributing to the area's maritime identity and gastronomy.

Visitors can access showers, restrooms, and parking facilities, while lifeguards patrol the beach daily from July through early September.

Natural pools form during low tide along the shoreline, creating protected areas for swimming and marine observation.
