Playa Astondo is nestled in the picturesque town of Gorliz in the Basque Country, Spain. It offers a serene beach escape with its impressive lengths of golden sand, gently kissed by the azure waters of the Bay of Biscay. Visitors can enjoy activities such as sunbathing, swimming, and leisurely strolls along the scenic coastline. Despite its tranquil allure, the beach has few amenities, necessitating careful planning for visits. During peak summer months, lifeguards are on duty to ensure safety for all beachgoers.
The beach is part of Gorliz's appeal as a touristic centre in Biscay, known for its natural beauty and the nearby Petrified Dunes of Astondo, a Site of Community Importance. This setting makes it ideal for those seeking a peaceful coastal experience.
Gorliz itself has a rich history and culture, with attractions like the Church of the Immaculate Conception and Cabo Villano lighthouse offering additional activities for travelers.
