Playa de Candás, Coastal beach in Candás, Spain

Playa de Candás is a sand and rock beach on the Central Coast of Asturias. The shoreline stretches for about 240 meters with varied terrain that offers different options for swimmers and water sports enthusiasts.

The beach lies in the port area of Candás, in the Carreño municipality of Asturias, on the Central Coast. The rock La Farola takes its name from an old watchtower used by fishermen, not from a lighthouse. The beach is also known as La Pregona.

The beach lies in the port area of Candás, and its rock La Farola is named after an old watchtower that guided fishermen. The adjacent Peña Furada separates it from La Palmera beach. A promenade leaves from here and links it on foot with Carranques, Huelgues, Tranqueru and Xivares.

The beach has basic amenities including restrooms, showers, trash bins, emergency phones, and lifeguards on duty during summer. Conditions vary with the season and weather, so visitors should check local forecasts before planning their visit.

The beach is bordered by two named rock formations: La Farola, named after an old fishermen's watchtower, and Peña Furada, which separates it from the neighbouring La Palmera beach. A promenade leaves the beach and links it on foot with Carranques, Huelgues, Tranqueru and Xivares.
