Areiño, pebble and sand beach in Teis, Vigo, Spain

Areiño, also called praia do Areiño, is a semi-urban beach in the Teis parish of Vigo, set north of Monte de la Guía. It runs about 50 metres and is made of pebbles and sand; at low tide a wide sandbank is exposed and later covered again by the water. An illuminated promenade runs along it, with views over the Ría de Vigo.

The beach lies in the parish of Teis, north of Monte de la Guía, and takes the alternate name Praia do Areiño. Its rowing club, the Club de Remo Virgen de la Guía, is named for the chapel on the headland above. The beach holds Blue Flag status, awarded for water quality, safety and services.

The beach is also known as playa del Areiño, and the Virgen de la Guía rowing club operates beside it. Its illuminated promenade is used for evening walks with views over the Ría de Vigo.

Access to the sand is by ramps, and there is a small car park. The urban bus line L-17 of Vitrasa serves the beach. The seafront promenade is lit and equipped.

The beach is also known as playa del Areiño, and the Virgen de la Guía rowing club, based beside it, takes its name from the Virgen de la Guía chapel on the Monte de la Guía that rises just to the south.
