Beach at a glance

What it is like

Characteristics published by official sources

Playa de O Morro is a small, isolated beach of golden sand and rock, set against a mountain slope and exposed to the area’s strong waves. Its 130-metre length and 20-metre width form part of a vegetated setting protected by the Site of Community Importance (SCI). At low tide it forms a single beach with Niñóns, a continuity that changes how the beach is perceived. It is easily reached on foot from the Malpica to Ponteceso road, with an interurban service 1 km away.
