The beach known as the 'Galician Caribbean' is not very crowded and has a promenade that is worth exploring.

Some people can't stand the high temperatures that occur in Spain during the summer and choose to spend their well-deserved vacations in cooler locations. Many travel to Galicia during the summer season. If there's one thing that characterizes the northwesternmost region of the Iberian Peninsula, it's the large number of quiet, uncrowded beaches , which aren't well-known but are incredible havens of peace.

One of them is the impressive Vidreiro Beach, located next to the beautiful fishing village of O Vicedo and very close to the northernmost point in all of Spain, Estaca de Bares. In addition to being an extraordinary sandy beach, it also has a wonderful promenade where you can take a relaxing walk after a dip in the cool waters of the Cantabrian Sea. Therefore, it is one of the most ideal places to escape the summer heat and the crowds.

Vidreiro Beach, a paradise in Galicia

Vidreiro Beach is located in the province of Lugo, although it's located a short distance from A Coruña due to its proximity to the town of O Vicedo. This beach is known as the "Galician Caribbean" due to its stunningly fine white sand and the impressive natural surroundings that embrace this enclave in northern Galicia. At just 200 meters long, it's like a well-kept secret that amazes all who discover it.

In addition to relaxing in the waters of the Cantabrian Sea, those who visit this beach can also take a wonderful walk along the beautiful promenade that borders the sandy beach from above. Along the way, which connects this magnificent enclave with the village of O Vicedo, you can enjoy stunning views of the estuary and the surrounding nature, creating a truly sublime setting.

The tranquility of Vidreiro Beach makes it perfect for those looking to escape the crowds and those looking to enjoy a family day out, as it's ideal for taking the little ones with you. Its calm, clear waters are also perfect for cooling off when the heat hits. Although it's not as stifling in Galicia as in other areas, it's always good to take a dip.

Furthermore, its easy access (reachable both on foot and by car) makes it one of the best in the entire A Mariña Lucense region and a must-visit spot for the summer months. Despite not being well-known among those outside the area, the truth is that this beach is one of the best on the entire Galician coast.
