Beach at a glance
What it is like
Río Castro is a small beach situated on the boundary between the municipalities of Fene and Cabanas. Its dark sand occupies 150 metres in length and 10 metres in width, on a semi-urban mountain frontage with vegetation and calm waters. Occupancy is low, but access is on foot and difficult from the AC-122, with an interurban bus connection. The listing does not detail beach facilities; Puerto Deportivo de Pontedeume appears as the nautical reference. Its boundary position and mountainous surroundings define the beach.
