Pebble beach · Castañeras, Spain

Playa Gavieiro

Playa Gavieiro lies in Castañeras, Spain, with a pebble shore. It is fairly sheltered, with open water only toward the west-north-west, so waves pick up when the wind blows from there. The bottom drops away quickly: about 6 m of water only 50 m from the shore. Further out it reaches roughly 13.8 m at 400 m. Tides matter here: the range is about 3.4 m. It is one of 7 beaches around Castañeras; the nearest is Playa La Caladoria, 330 m away.
