Praia das Furnas, Atlantic beach in Xuño, Spain

The white sand beach of Praia das Furnas extends for 440 meters along the Galician coast, bordered by natural rock formations and clear waters.

The beach gained national recognition after becoming the filming location for the 2004 Spanish drama film 'Mar Adentro' directed by Alejandro Amenábar.

The area near Praia das Furnas contains the Celtic stone settlement Castros de Baroña, demonstrating the ancient maritime heritage of Galician coastal communities.

Visitors can access the beach through wooden boardwalks that connect to hiking trails leading to the Xuño and San Pedro de Muro lagoons.

The coastal area features distinct geological formations where the intersection of cliffs and ocean creates natural pools during low tide periods.
