Beach · Castrelo, Spain

Praia da Lorcheira

Praia da Lorcheira lies in Castrelo, Spain. 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 5.4 m of water only 50 m from the shore. Further out it reaches roughly 9.4 m at 400 m. There are some trees around the beach (trees around 10 m tall), enough for patches of shade. Tides matter here: the range is about 3.0 m.
