Playa de Aramar, Pebble and sand beach in Gozón, Spain

Playa de Aramar is a shell-shaped beach in the Aramar locality, Gozón, Asturias. Its bed has little sand and many stones, and it is reached by an unpaved path that passes a small parking area at the entrance. A small bridge crosses the La Gallega stream where it flows onto the beach.

Aramar's beach holds a Mesolithic site, evidence of hunter-gatherer use of this stretch of the Gozón coast thousands of years ago. Nearby stands the old Anselmo Artime shipyard, a reminder of the boatbuilding that once worked these shores.

The beach takes its name from the Aramar shipyard, the old Anselmo Artime yard that stands by the sand. Anglers still fish from the shore with rod and line, a practice the sources single out as one of the beach's draws.

Access is by an unpaved road that passes a small car park at the entrance; it is the same route as for Playa del Dique but turns onto calle Asturias instead of calle Molín de la Arena. The path crosses a small bridge over the arroyo de La Gallega, which flows out onto the beach. In summer a rescue and lifeguard team is on duty, and the beach has lavatories, showers, bins, cleaning service and danger signage.

At low tide Aramar joins the neighbouring Playa del Dique, and from both beaches you can walk across to the Isla del Carmen. The beach also holds a Mesolithic site and the old Anselmo Artime shipyard, remains visitors often pass without noticing.
