Detrás do Castillo, Rock and olive sand beach in Mugardos, Spain
The beach presents a combination of rock formations and olive-colored sand stretching along 45 meters of coastline with a width of 15 meters.
The beach takes its name from its location near La Palma Castle, which dates back several centuries and served as a defensive structure on the Galician coast.
Local residents gather at the beach during summer festivals, continuing traditions that connect the maritime heritage of Mugardos with contemporary celebrations.
Visitors can access the beach through marked pathways, and the tourist office in Mugardos provides information about tide schedules and local facilities.
The beach features two distinct sections: one with natural rock formations and another with olive-tinted sand, creating a natural division of environments.
