Praia de Chancelas
6 Miranda

The beach wasn't great. It had a snack bar, but that's about it. Nothing else to make it stand out.

Praia de Lourido
8 Luisa Rodriguez Garcia

The coastal walk near Pontevedra is a delightful experience that can be completed in just a few minutes. Within a 10-minute drive or a 30-minute walk, you'll discover charming little beaches, rocky outcroppings, and scenic viewpoints. It's a fantastic way to get some fresh sea air and explore the area.

Barreiros beach
6 Gustavo Varela

Longara beach is a sight to behold. With its picturesque views and tranquil waters, it's the perfect spot for a relaxing day out. However, it's also worth noting that the beach can get quite crowded, so plan your visit accordingly.

Praia do Padron
6 Marcello Cortez

I wouldn't suggest this beach for a swim, but it's a great spot to take in the stunning view of Combarro's hórreos and estuaries.

Praia de Campelo
8 Emilio Javier Lopez

Lourido Beach is a fantastic spot to visit, located only 500 metres away. Unfortunately, the view is slightly marred by the presence of ENCE, which is a bit of an eyesore. Despite this, the journey from A Seca in Poio to the Campelo beach and then onto Lourido is a sight to behold. It's possible to complete the entire route within an hour and a quarter, as the terrain is mostly flat with only a couple of small slopes and steps. Kudos to the Council of Poio for creating such a beautiful beach.

The warmest month during the year in this area is July, with the air temperature rising up to 25.2°C and the water temperature up to 17.1°C. The coldest month is January, with the air temperature dropping down to 11.7°C and the water temperature down to 12.9°C.
