Characteristics published by official sources

Playa de San Marcial, also known as Cabreira, occupies a stretch of the island of A Toxa, 250 metres long and 24 metres wide. Its white sand opens beside a wetland frontage, with vegetation and calm waters, within an area protected as part of the Natura 2000 Network and Ramsar. It is not primarily a bathing beach: the listing states that it is used mainly for shellfish gathering on foot. It can be reached easily on foot or by car from the O Grove–A Toxa road, with interurban transport.
