Beach · O Carril, Spain

Praia de Area Grosa

A beach in O Carril, Spain. The bay opens toward the west-south-west across about 18 km of open sea, so expect waves when the wind comes from that side. The nearest chart sounding shows about 3.6 m of water 100 m offshore. Further out it reaches roughly 3.6 m at 400 m. There are some trees around the beach (trees around 14 m tall), enough for patches of shade. Tides matter here: the range is about 3.0 m.
