Beach at a glance
What it is like
Playa de Santa Mariña de Brantuas is a tiny, isolated beach barely 30 metres long and 5 metres wide, formed by golden sand and rock opposite a cliff. Its size is even more changeable because it practically disappears at high tide. It is near Rampa-Varadeiro and the port of Barquiña/Santa Mariña, located 0.5 km away, within vegetated surroundings protected by the Site of Community Importance (SCI). Access on foot is difficult from the Malpica to Ponteceso road, with an interurban connection 1 km away.
