Cabeiro, Rock beach in Porto do Son, Spain
Description
Cabeiro is a rock and sand beach in Porto do Son that stretches for 1200 meters along the Galician coast. The waterfront combines sandy areas with natural rock outcrops and is backed by vegetation that reaches down toward the shore.
History
Porto do Son developed as a fishing settlement during the expansion of Galician maritime trade in the region. The area around Cabeiro became established as part of this coastal fishing community over centuries.
Culture
The beach draws locals and visitors who gather to watch fishing boats arrive with the day's catch, a rhythm that shapes the waterfront community.
Practical
The beach is accessible from the road and offers showers and restrooms on site. The rocky areas are best explored at low tide, so checking the tidal schedule before your visit helps you make the most of both zones.
Did you know?
At low tide, small rocky pools form along the shore and fill with seawater, creating natural habitats for starfish, crabs, and other marine life. These tidal pools offer visitors a chance to observe the creatures living in these temporary reservoirs.
