O Fuchiño, Urban beach in Canido, Vigo, Spain

O Fuchiño, also called the arenal del Fuchiño, la Mosca or de Monduíña, is a beach of the city of Vigo in the Canido neighbourhood, parish of San Miguel de Oya. It runs 570 metres long and 10 metres wide, with white sand and some rocky outcrops. Punta Marosa bounds it to the west and the Canido quay installations to the east, with the Isla de Toralla and its access bridge in view.

The beach lies in the parish of San Miguel de Oya, in the Canido neighbourhood of Vigo, and takes its name from O Fuchiño, one of several local names also used for the sandbank. The western end is closed by Punta Marosa and the eastern end by the installations of the Canido quay, which fixed the current outline of the cove.

The beach is also called O Fuchiño, A Mosca or Monduíña, names still used by residents of Canido and San Miguel de Oya. Bathers look across the water to the Isla de Toralla and its access bridge, a landmark of the parish.

Access is by the PO-325 coastal road west of Canido, with ramps down to the sand; the Vigo-Bayona interurban bus stops about 0.5 km away. The beach runs 570 m between Punta Marosa to the west and the Canido quay installations to the east. Bins and a cleaning service are provided.

On its left margin lie small islets that make the beach a good place to learn scuba diving; a viewpoint overlooks the sand. The beach is also known as el arenal del Fuchiño, la Mosca or de Monduíña.
