Arrietara, Golden sand beach in Sopela, Spain
Arrietara is a golden sand beach along the Basque coast in Sopela, stretching 826 meters long and about 160 meters wide. Natural rock cliffs frame both sides of the shoreline, creating a natural amphitheater effect.
The Sopela coastline has maintained its natural form for centuries and served as a setting for traditional Basque maritime practices. This long relationship with the sea continues to shape how locals view their landscape.
The beach serves as a gathering place for locals, especially during summer when community events bring people together. Residents use this space to maintain their connection to the coast and to each other.
The beach has shower facilities, restrooms, and parking for over 100 vehicles available for visitors. Access is straightforward from the BI-4126 road, making it easy to reach from Sopela.
The beach draws surfers from the region due to strong waves and favorable water conditions, with a designated surfing area. This specialty has made it a recognized spot among local water sports enthusiasts.
