Sandy beach · Vilanova, Spain

Praia de Couso

Praia de Couso lies in Vilanova, Spain, with a sandy shore. The bay opens toward the north-north-east across about 4 km of open sea, so expect waves when the wind comes from that side. The nearest chart sounding shows about 7.5 m of water 150 m offshore. Further out it reaches roughly 11.9 m at 400 m. The surroundings are wooded (trees around 13 m tall), so there is natural shade to find in the afternoon. Tides matter here: the range is about 2.9 m.
