Beach at a glance
What it is like
Playa de Balea forms part of the Playas de Reira, the group of four unspoilt beaches east of Cabo Vilán together with Area de Reira, Area Longa and Pedrosa. Its white-sand frontage measures 110 metres in length and reaches 135 metres in width, in an isolated setting of cliffs, vegetation and protection as a Site of Community Importance (SCI). Strong waves and wind define this open coast, which has low occupancy, while the entry warns of tides with a strong undertow in the area. It is reached by car from the AC-432, with parking for fewer than 50 vehicles. It also forms part of several hiking routes.
