Sheltered Beach · As Brañas, Spain

Praia da Porqueira

Praia da Porqueira is a beach in As Brañas, Spain. Land closes it in on almost every side, so waves rarely build here. The nearest chart sounding shows about 3 m of water 150 m offshore. Further out it reaches roughly 3 m at 400 m. There are some trees around the beach (trees around 9 m tall), enough for patches of shade. Tides matter here: the range is about 2.9 m.
