This crescent-shaped beach is the largest, most historic and emblematic in Gijón. It is located within the city itself, very near the centre. It is separated from Poniente beach by the Cimadevilla neighbourhood. It is bordered by a very busy promenade known as El Muro, which is almost three kilometres long and goes from the church of San Pedro to Mayán de Tierra, passing the mouth of the Piles river. Sports enthusiasts can enjoy surfing, sea kayaking or windsurfing. You can also practice beach volleyball and beach soccer. Its shell shape helps to keep the surf moderate.
