Praia do Abra

Praia do Abra is a beach in Panxón, Nigrán, stretching approximately 1700 meters along the coast with a width of roughly 80 meters, combining white sand and rocky sections. The shoreline varies in character, offering visitors different beach environments within a single coastal area.

The beach evolved from a traditional fishing community into a modern recreational destination over time. This shift reflects how the Nigrán coast transformed from a working harbor area into a place for leisure and tourism.

This beach serves as a gathering place where locals celebrate seasonal traditions and daily coastal life. The shoreline remains central to community activities and the rhythm of village life in the area.

The area has showers, toilets, and lounger rentals available during the main swimming season to keep visitors comfortable. The rocky sections require different footwear and care compared to sandy areas, so plan accordingly.

From the shoreline, visitors can see the Islas Cíes archipelago across the water on the horizon. This vista makes the location special because you experience both rocky and sandy shores in one place while viewing these distant islands.
