Playa de Taurán, Protected beach in Valdés, Spain.

Playa de Tauran is a protected beach on the Asturian coast stretching approximately 100 meters with a mixture of sand and pebbles forming its floor. Natural cliffs border the shoreline and create a dramatic edge where land meets water.

The coastal area received official protection status in the 1990s to preserve its natural ecosystems and wildlife. This designation has helped maintain the shoreline's natural character through the following decades.

Local communities value this beach for its role as a working fishing area where traditional maritime practices remain part of daily life. The place reflects how people here maintain their connection to the sea through generations.

The beach is accessible via two walking paths: one branches off about 300 meters before the camping area while the other circles around the campsite to the west. Both routes offer convenient access depending on where you arrive from.

Two freshwater streams meet the sea here, creating a rare spot where three different bodies of water converge at the shoreline. This mixing point makes the beach an unusual ecological location along the coast.
