In the previous article I wrote about a route which runs through the beaches of Cuevas del Mar and San Antonio del Mar (St Anthony of the Sea), the latter being the subject of this article.
You cannot reach the San Antonio del Mar Beach by car, but you can by bicycle or on foot.
It is a beach of singular beauty; it is clean and peaceful, set in the middle of the countryside far from civilisation and noise. Leer más »

In previous articles I wrote about a few beaches. But summertime is not just about beaches, it is also a time to enjoy some wonderful walks.
A good example is the walk recommended in today’s article, a perfect combination of a bit of hill-walking with a stroll along a beach or two… as the route runs through the beaches of: Cuevas del Mar (Caves of the Sea) and San Antonio del Mar (St. Anthony of the Sea)
It’s a very short walk but it is also quite lovely. You’ll soon be enjoying fresh air, nature and fauna…
As you move uphill along the trail, you will see the amazing cliffs of the area where you’ll find the Shrine of Saint Anthony, set in the Cabo de Mar (Sea Cove).

BEACHES: CUEVAS DEL MAR BEACH

In the previous article I wrote about a small but tremendously beautiful beach, Guadamía Beach. This time I’d like to tell you about one of the many other beaches in the municipality of Llanes, Cuevas del Mar Beach.
Unlike Guadamía Beach, Cuevas del Mar Beach does not owe its name to the river that runs into it, River de Nueva, but rather to the caves that are found in the rocks on this beach, caused by sea erosion.
This beach in Llanes can be reached by car and apart from being beautiful it is sheltered from the wind thanks to its shell-like form, making it ideal for a fantastic day on the beach.

BEACHES: GUADAMÍA BEACH

As many of you will know, the east coast of Asturias is of unparallel beauty, which explains why this area is chosen as the setting for film shoots.
Thanks to film, we know of a lot of hidden corners along the coast of eastern Asturias, but there are still quite many that are not so well known. A clear example is Guadamía Beach, found in the municipality of Llanes.
The municipalities of Ribadesella and Llanes are divided along the coast by the River Guadamía, which gives its name to this lovely beach.
The access to Guadamía Beach is very good and can be reached by car – well not right up to the beach itself, you have to walk down some 50m to it. Frankly, it’s a beach that even if I had to walk several kilometres to get there, I would do so with pleasure. As always, there is a map at the end of the article where you’ll find this beach in Llanes.
