Itinerary description
Beach hopping from Playa de Barro to Playa de Toranda and Playa de Torimbia. The walk will be about 4 km shorter if you skip the first loop.
There is a small parking opposite of the area recreativa de Niembru (see first photo). The little loop goes through Barro past a labyrinth (open in summer) and via dirt tracks back into Barro again, passing the beach.
The second loop passes first by the beautiful Miembru cemetery. The part after that, to another area recreativa, might not be possible with high tide (you can continue along the road then). Then it goes through the village of Niembru on to Playa de Toranda. From there it is a nice walk with beautiful views to Playa de Torimbia. The descent to the beach is a bit steep at some parts.
From there you'll climb up to the parking and mirador next to Playa de Torimbia and continue on a dirt track of which most part is almost flat. You are on the coastal route E9 now. Then after a picknick spot with a view and a descent you will join the Camino de Santiago in reverse, back to Barro.
