Playa de Santa Comba is a beautiful, natural beach located in a remote area. The beach is characterized by its white sand and turquoise water, which is often described as clean and breathtaking. The beach is divided into three sections, one of which is only accessible by sea. This section features a cave where many mollusks can be observed in the rocks.
The beach is surrounded by small but dramatic cliffs and a lagoon that appears during low tide. There is also a small cove on one side of the beach, which leads to the Santa Comba hermitage. However, visitors are advised to be cautious as the tide can cover this entire area.
In addition to its natural beauty, Playa de Santa Comba offers ample parking at the eastern end. Despite its size and the presence of a large main beach, the area remains almost virgin with practically no nearby buildings. This contributes to the beach's serene and untouched atmosphere.
Playa de Santa Comba amenities include parking.
