The beaches of Orzán and Riazor (situated on the Western side of the peninsula) provide a nice and sandy beach within the city itself. However, if you are used to swimming in the Mediterranean, you might find the water slightly cold.
The seafront promenade, that surrounds the peninsula, provides the opportunity of nice strolls. Starting by the La Marina, you can proceed on to the Castelo de San Antón, the Dique de Abrigo, towards the Torre de Hércules, Casa de los Peces, Casa del Hombre, Orzán and Riazor beaches, Millenium monument, and proceed towards the area known as O Portiño, on the flanks of Monte de San Pedro. This last bit of the promenade is outside the main city.Buy
