About Praia de Barraña

By Equipe editorial GTM Labs · Updated 08/10/2026

Barraña beach is Boiro's town beach: a gently sloping stretch of fine white sand, some 1,530 metres long, running from the Barraña-Saltiño sands to the estuary of the river Coroño. A seafront promenade of some 3 km, with a cycle lane, runs along both stretches of sand.
