Beach at a glance
What it is like
Playa de Fontiñas is an island beach of rounded stones, forming part of one of the islands of the Parque Nacional marítimo-terrestre de las Islas Atlánticas de Galicia. The entry records 100 metres of length and 5 metres of width, a mountainous frontage with vegetation, protection as Espacio Natural and Red Natura 2000, and moderate waves with wind. Its most distinctive feature is also its limitation: it is considered a beach that practically does not exist. Access is only by boat, with an anchorage area and interurban transport as a reference.
