Beach · Vigo, Spain

A Area da Cantareira

A Area da Cantareira lies in Vigo, Spain. It is fairly sheltered, with open water only toward the east, so waves pick up when the wind blows from there. The nearest chart sounding shows about 9.8 m of water 150 m offshore. Further out it reaches roughly 13.9 m at 400 m. The surroundings are wooded (trees around 14 m tall), so there is natural shade to find in the afternoon. Tides matter here: the range is about 2.9 m.
