Surfistas caminando hacia el mar en la Playa de Soesto

Area

Soesto beach, surf and Costa da Morte

A wild sandy beach between cliffs, steady waves all year round and a coastline full of beaches, lighthouses and stone villages.

In Soesto, the same village as the guesthouse

Soesto beach

A few minutes from the guesthouse, Soesto beach is a wide stretch of sand, open to the Atlantic and surrounded by dunes and scrubland. With almost no buildings around, it keeps a natural character that makes it one of the most appreciated beaches in the area.

An 850-metre cove of fine white sand, with a small stream reaching the beach and crossed by a footbridge. Access is on foot, some 300 metres from the car park, and it links to O Camiño dos Faros trail.

It is also a surf reference in Galicia: it gets swell almost all year and welcomes everyone from beginner schools to experienced surfers. As an open-sea beach, swim carefully and always watch the currents.
