Characteristics published by official sources

Playa de Buraca lies on Punta Sobreira, at the entrance to the Vigo ria, with a shore of golden sand and rock. Its 130 metres of length and 20 metres of width form part of a semi-urban coast with vegetation, low occupancy and customary moderate waves and wind. The headland’s relief defines the immediate landscape. It is easily reached on foot or by car from Canido along the road towards the Playa Fuchiños development, with an interurban bus service and access for people with reduced mobility. The entry records litter bins and cleaning.
