Playa La Huelga y Playa de la Canalina, Sandy beach near Hontoria, Spain.

Playa La Huelga is a triangular beach at the mouth of the San Cecilio River, a few kilometres from Hontoria, with marshes nearby. To its east, sheltered by a limestone cliff, lies Playa de la Canalina, which disappears at high tide. Both sit in a rural area of medium risk; La Huelga can be reached by vehicle almost to the sand, while La Canalina is a walk of less than half a kilometre.

The sources record no harbor or trading history for these coves. La Huelga lies at the mouth of the San Cecilio River, near marshes and a few kilometres from Hontoria, and is protected for its vegetation and geology within the Paisaje Protegido de la Costa Oriental de Asturias. La Canalina, east of it, is a tidal cove reached by a cement path cut into the rock.
