Praia da Ribeira

Praia da Ribeira is a sandy shore along the northern coast of Galicia with light-colored sand interspersed with natural rock formations that extend into the Atlantic. The landscape combines open beach with sheltered areas enclosed by stone.

The beach has been bound to fishing since the town's early days and shaped its development over time. Maritime work remained the foundation of local life across generations.

The beach is intertwined with local fishing traditions, showing how residents use the coast for their daily work and livelihoods. This connection between shore and maritime labor shapes the character of the community today.

The beach is easy to reach from the town center and most accessible during warm months. Visit at low tide to explore the sheltered rock areas that form natural basins.

At low tide, natural pools form between the rocks, creating temporary swimming spots. These isolated basins are completely cut off from the open sea and only appear at certain tide levels.
