The beach of the Cathedrals, the time of a low tide

A mythical beach in Spain

Praia de As Catedrais , Cathedral Beach , is located on the north coast of Spain , near Golfo de Vizcaya , understand the Gulf of Gascony. At low tide, you can walk under and around its uncertain rocky arches, which sway the beach like real little cathedrals. But if you stay too long, the tide will go up and swallow all the cathedrals, until they look like marvellous wonders that have never been on the shore. To get to the beach, you have to go Ribadeo , which is equal distance from La Corogne and Gijón. In addition to its spectacular arches, the Cathedral Beach Also has caves that you can climb and visit, and cliffs of about 30 meters high, perfect for a glance at the noisy high tide waters. The beach is protected as a natural monument by the government of Galicia. Because the photos will speak more than the words, and because the only thing you have to do is to go there in the beautiful days, here are some pictures of the “ cathedrals” and this beautiful beach:
