Playa de los Caballos, Natural beach in Miengo, Cantabria, Spain
Playa de los Caballos extends around 200 meters along the coast with sandy stretches and rock formations at both ends. The shoreline is shaped by these natural rock features, creating distinct areas along the beach.
The coastal area has maintained its natural state over centuries with minimal human intervention. This lack of development has allowed the beach to preserve its original character and landscape.
Local people gather here during summer evenings to watch the sunset over the Cantabrian Sea, making it part of their daily social life. These moments reflect how the place serves as a meeting point for the community throughout the warmer months.
Access is on foot from the CA-326 motorway via a natural path without marked facilities or amenities. Wear comfortable shoes for the walk and be prepared for an unimproved trail.
Tall cliffs surround the beach, creating a natural enclosure that keeps visitor numbers low throughout the year. This geographic setting makes the cove feel removed and peaceful, unlike crowded spots nearby.
