With the arrival of good weather, there are many caregivers who want to share their love of the beach with their dog, but you should know that only in some sandbanks the presence of animals is allowed during the months of summer. To avoid considerable economic sanctions, we should be well informed of which are those to which we can go, yes, even if they are open to dogs, we must always comply with civic regulations for a good coexistence.
In this article on our site we review the beaches for dogs in Asturias. In any case, remember to check the regulations before going, as it is not uncommon for new beaches to be incorporated or for some to cease to be accessible to dogs.
Cervigon Beach
We begin our review of Asturian beaches at Cervigón. It is a semi-urban beach in Gijón, at the end of its promenade, in Rinconín. It is very popular and is characterized by thick, dark sand, as well as rocks, so it is recommended to go when the tide goes out. The water looks clean and among these rocks pools of different sizes are formed that dogs may like very much. There is no excessive swell.
It is about 250 meters long and, as an extra, it also has a large park next to itwhere we can play with our dog and let him run as much as he wants. In case you arrive by car, there is a car park next to the park. You have to have your dog controlled and carry his documentation with him, with the he alth card up to date. You should also bring water to offer regularly, bags to collect stool and sunscreen for dogs that the vet recommends.
Cala Saliencia
Located in Cudillero, one of the advantages of this beach is that it is open all year round, but it has the problem that it is small, about 150 meters long, its accessibility is not easy, you have to leave the car about 15 minutes away, it has many rocks, so you don't we will be able to comfortably put a towel, and, in addition, it does not offer any other additional service.
On the other hand, your dog could cut his pads on rocks, so be careful or even put some suitable footwear. In this article you can learn how to treat wounds in the pads of dogs, just in case. You should also wear shoes. These disadvantages make it little traffic, so you may like it if you are looking for a quiet and lonely place. Of course, you should also carry your dog's updated card with you. The swell is moderate.
Sablon Beach
It is a delimited area of the Bayas beach, in its western part, with dark sand and large dimensions, enabled for dogs at any time of the year and that offers extras when coming with our companion, such as fountains and showers that can be used by both animals and keepers, as well as toilets. It is easy access and the largest dog beach in Asturias, over 3 km long.
It is part of a natural area and there are usually quite a lot of people An important disadvantage is that, in the area for dogs,the water is not suitable for bathing of people and there are quite a few waves, but perhaps the most important thing is that the dogs have to be on a leash. You have to keep the card up to date. It's in Castrillón
Cambaredo Beach
Once again it is a beach of difficult access, narrow, with sand, gravel, rocks andvery rocky , for this reason it is not very popular, although the landscape, of cliffs, is worth it. It practically disappears when the tide rises. To reach it you have to descend a long flight of stairs , with more than 100 steps, without any promenade.
It is about 220 meters long, making it similar in size to Cervigón beach. It does not have any additional service. Yes, it is open for dogs throughout the year and in its favor it has the advantage that there are not many waves, which will please dogs, although the characteristics of its soil make it difficult to reach the sea. It is in the El Franco town hall
Quintana Beach
An area has been set up on this beach where dogs can go. Make sure you are in the right part, otherwise you risk a fine. You can go with your dog at any time of the year and at any time, always with your card up to date. The animal can go loose, which does not imply that we can ignore it. It's in ValdésIt has no other services than bins to deposit excrement.
Campiecho Beach
We finished the review of the sandbanks that in this last year have been enabled for dogs in Asturias with the second canine beach that we found in Valdésand that it is open to them all year round, with the same conditions as Quintana beach, since both share the same municipal area. Likewise, it does not have any extra services other than the bins.
If you have already decided to visit one of these beaches, you can confirm that they are suitable for dogs by contacting the corresponding tourist office.
