Playa del Moro, Protected beach in Navia, Spain

Playa del Moro is a straight, roughly 100-metre-long and 25-metre-wide beach in Navia, Asturias, made of coarse dark sand containing silica and slate. It sits in an urban setting, backed by cliffs, and is reached by the path descending from the viewpoint between it and Playa de Navia. It has no services and is much less visited than the neighbouring beach.

Playa del Moro is a prolongation of Navia beach, separated only at high tide. It lies outside the Paisaje Protegido de la Costa Occidental de Asturias but is catalogued as a ZEPA and LIC site, the EU Birds and Habitats designations that protect its cliff and intertidal habitats.

The beach draws people who value privacy and freedom of expression in their way of spending time by the sea. Naturist practices have become an accepted and visible part of daily life here over the years.

Access is by the path descending from the viewpoint between Playa del Moro and Playa de Navia, the route most people use. At low tide you can also walk in from Playa de Navia. The beach has parking, a play area and a fresh-water fountain, but no other services. It is a naturist beach, and its surf is rated Category 2.

At low tide, this beach connects with the neighboring Playa de Navia, creating an extended shoreline for walkers to explore. This natural connection allows visitors to traverse different sections of the coast in one continuous journey.
