Playa de Moniello

Playa de Moniello is a protected beach on the Asturian coast, stretching along limestone cliffs that create natural rock pools at low tide. The cove opens to deeper waters and faces north toward the Bay of Biscay.

The location served as an anchorage for small fishing boats from the early days of maritime activity in the region. This long fishing tradition shaped the local connection to the sea.

The area reflects local dedication to preserving the coastline, with regulations in place to protect its natural character.

The beach is accessible from the La Corona residential area with parking available nearby and basic facilities within reach. Low tide offers the best window for exploring the rock pools safely.

The limestone formations create natural swimming pools that are only accessible during low tide, making tide timing essential for a full visit. This tidal rhythm adds an element of timing and discovery to exploring the cove.
