Playas de El Riego y La Barquera

El Riego and La Barquera beaches feature rocky surroundings and tidal pools along the northern Asturian coastline, stretching over 275 meters combined.

The beaches have maintained their natural state since ancient times, serving as essential fishing grounds for local communities throughout many generations.

Local fishermen continue their traditional practices along these shores, contributing to the preservation of regional fishing methods and maritime heritage.

Access to the beaches requires a walking descent through a path from Novellana village or crossing from Playa del Silencio over small streams.

The protected area harbors numerous marine species in its tidal pools, while supporting significant bird populations in the surrounding cliffs.
