Soesto

Soesto is a white sand beach on the Galician coast that stretches for approximately 850 meters along the water. Forested hills frame the shoreline, creating a sheltered cove bordered by natural vegetation and rising terrain.

This area is part of Costa da Morte, a coastal region with a long history of shipwrecks and hazardous maritime conditions. For centuries, these waters presented serious dangers to seafarers navigating this stretch of Atlantic shoreline.

The fishing boats working these waters today keep alive long-standing Galician maritime customs passed down through generations. This connection between the people and the sea shapes the character of the area.

The beach has a large parking area and basic facilities including public restrooms and shower stations for visitors. Most amenities are available and operational during the warmer months.

Strong winds and powerful waves make this location a preferred destination for experienced surfers seeking substantial swells along this stretch of coast. Winter months bring particularly intense and challenging conditions.
