Playa de El Dique, Natural beach in Gozón, Spain

Playa de El Dique extends 180 meters in length and 25 meters in width, featuring a combination of golden sand and gravel surfaces.

The beach's name originates from an ancient dam that enclosed a small active port, while medieval salt pans operated along this coastal area.

The neighboring Isla del Carmen hosts an annual celebration called 'jira' during low tides, connecting the community to maritime traditions.

Visitors can access the beach via Carpinteros de Ribera street from Luanco, with a designated parking area near the shoreline.

The name Aramar, an alternative designation for this beach, derives from 'ara maris,' suggesting the presence of a Roman temple on Isla del Carmen.
