Penarronda beach is shared by the councils of Castropol (Barres) and Tapia de Casariego (Santa Gadía). Divided by the stream of the same name, Penarronda is unique: its flora includes Malcomia littorea, that is, sea wallflower, a species in danger of extinction, which is not present anywhere else in Asturias.
In addition, it stands out for its singular beauty, in the shape of an elongated shell and with a round rock in the center that gives its name to the beach. It has good equipment, it is windy and with strong waves, which makes it perfect for surfing.

A beach like any other on this coast, you will think in the beginning. But the rock right in the middle of the beach with its gate is worth a visit.
