Playa de Guadamía

Playa de Guadamía is a small cove with fine sand backed by limestone cliffs that drop steeply to the water. The Guadamía River flows into the sea here, carving natural caves and rock formations along the shoreline.

The limestone cliffs formed when this area was beneath ancient seas millions of years ago. Water from the Guadamía River has continued to shape the caves and rock patterns we see today.

The Guadamía River mouth draws local fishers who work seasonally here, shaping how the cove functions as part of the wider fishing community.

A paved path leads down from the town of Llames de Pría with parking available near the trailhead. Wearing water shoes is wise since the beach transitions to rocky areas and you may wade across stones to reach deeper water.

At high tide, the cove fills completely and becomes a natural saltwater pool ringed by cliffs. When the tide drops, you can walk across exposed rock shelves and discover tidal pools tucked between the stones.
