Xiglú, Sorraos and Barro beach, Coastal beaches in Llanes, Spain
Xiglú, Sorraos, and Barro are three connected beaches along the Asturian coast, combining fine sand with rocky sections and natural cliff formations. Each section has different characteristics, with Barro offering the most facilities including showers and waste collection services.
These beaches were designated as part of the Protected Landscape of Eastern Asturias because of their environmental and geological value. This protection status reflects how important this coastal section is to the region's natural heritage.
Fishing boats move along the shore throughout the day, showing how the sea remains central to local life and work. You can see this maritime connection in the way locals and visitors both respect the water and coastline.
At high tide, the three beaches merge into one continuous shoreline, making the layout change throughout the day. Plan your visit around the tides to experience different configurations and find the best conditions for your needs.
Low tide reveals clear separations between the three sections, while high tide makes them disappear and merge, offering two completely different exploration experiences. This tidal transformation means each visit can feel entirely new.
