Playa Torimbia, Naturist beach in Niembro, Llanes, Spain

Playa de Torimbia is a wide sandy beach on the northern coast of Asturias, framed by sheer cliffs and forested hillsides that rise sharply from the shore. The beach curves into a crescent shape, creating an enclosed cove effect.

Torimbia lies in Niembro, in the Llanes council of eastern Asturias, on the Cantabrian coast. Its vegetation earned it protection as part of the Paisaje Protegido de la Costa Oriental de Asturias, alongside the eastern foothills of the Sierra de Cuera nearby. The cove is closed by a cliff over 50 metres high, below the northern slope of the Sierra Plana de Los Llanos.

Torimbia is one of the best-known nudist beaches on the Cantabrian coast and among the most highly regarded in Spain, though it is not reserved for nudists. Bathers reach it on foot through Niembro, and at low tide they can walk on to the beaches of Portacos and Peñadrada.

Access is through Niembro, with the last two kilometres on a narrow sandy track. The sand narrows from about 100 metres at low tide to 76 metres at high tide. At low tide you can walk on to the beaches of Portacos and Peñadrada. Bathing depth stays under about 1.5 metres, with no sudden drops.

At low tide, bathers can walk from Torimbia around the headland to the neighbouring beaches of Portacos and Peñadrada. The sand strip itself shifts with the tide, from about 76 metres at high water to 100 metres at low water.
