Beaches in and near Llanes, Spain

by Kathryn Hunt

The north coast of Spain has an area know as the Costa Verde, green coast. The coast line is rather dramatic with cliffs, beaches that are coves and deep estuaries. These photos are from a small part of the Costa Verde, beautiful beaches that we walked to from the beach town of Celorio.
