The promenade
Aug 2021 • Solo
More than the beach itself, what I truly recommend is walk (or run) all along the promenade, starting from here (in front of the mythic stadium) all the way to the marina., crossing the Tower of Hercules and its surroundings. A challenge, but worth trying

The longest seaside promenade in Europe.
Jun 2019
Riazor beach is part of the longest 13-kilometer seaside promenade in Europe, Paseo Maritimo. You can conditionally call it a beach. I was on the last day of June, it was impossible to swim. Cold. Perhaps you can sunbathe when the windy and unstable weather in La Coruna allows it for a couple of hours. In General, everything is as we have in Murmansk. Only we have the Arctic, and here it seems like the South...

Great beach in the middle of the city
Jul 2020
Perfect beach in the heart of La Coruna city. Beautiful beach where you can walk and enjoy the beautiful views. If you go to La Coruna you can't miss it. It is really nice to walk all along the shoreline.

great area to walk around even if it is too cold to swim
Feb 2020
the kilometers of walkways that connect the Playa de Riazor are wonderful to walk, even if it is too cold to bathe in the sea. The waves and rocks are impressive as well.

Expansive City Beach
Apr 2018 • Solo
Attractive city beach with soft white sand. Excellent promenade walk around the expansive bay. Pity there are not more attractions and more bars, cafes and restaurants on the promenade - there are a few at the Riazor end but otherwise they are mostly tucked away one or two streets back from the beach.

Really nice surprise
Sep 2017 • Solo
Stopped here on a cruise. Had no idea such a lovely beach was available so close to the cruise terminal. 10 min walk through the main shopping street . Beautiful sand , clear water , large expanse of beach with no one on it !!!

Endless beach and walks....fantastic!
Lots to see on a walk along this beautiful beach....surprisingly only 10 to 15 minutes walk from the City shops, bars, restaurants and Plazas.

Beach visit
Aug 2017 • Family
What a beautiful place .Spotlessly clean clear water.Breathaking views good facilities life guards on duty. Unbelieveable to have this right in town. A5 minute walk from cruise terminal if you are on a cruise stop it is well worth a visit. Lots of shops and cafes close by too

Playa de Riazor
Jun 2016 • Family
Beautiful, turquoise waters. Sea is rough at this area, but nonetheless, people were frolicking in the waves. Nice beach for sunbathing, many families were there when I visited. Very clean, family oriented. City of A Coruña is the backdrop. It's Europe, so normal to see topless women sunbathing.
