Image of Cape Peñas, a mountain of rock that juts out into the sea, above a photographer taking a photo with a telephoto lens. The deep blue sea surrounds the cape and in the distance a boat. The blue sky with some very discreet white clouds.
Xagó beach, golden sand, almost white, with some rocks. It is a large sandy area with dunes and vegetation. The blue sea reaches the shore with some waves. In the background the coast and other headlands that go into the sea. In the foreground, some fuchsia flowers in the meadow above the beach stand out in the picture.
Image of the old part of Luanco, in the foreground the beach of La Ribera reaches the promenade and in the background the white houses, some with galleries that fall to the promenade of the port. Behind the clock tower. At the end of the promenade you can see the church with a tree behind it and on the old quay some moored boats.
Picture of the coast of Gozón, blue sea, grassy cliffs with some bushes and in the background the Cabo Peñas lighthouse. Rocks emerge from the sea near the cliffs, the water forms some foam on impact with them. A blue sky meets the sea.

Info

Gozón is countryside and sea. Its magnificent beaches are imprinted on the retina : Xagó, Verdicio, Viodo, Llumeres, Bañugues... and many others. A truly unique landscape is that of Peñes - the most northerly point of Asturias - with its cliffs and its islands, with its biodiversity, its lighthouse and its Marine Environment Interpretation Centre, and with villages where good seafood cuisine is the order of the day.

The ideal counterpoint to this coastline of untamed and virgin shades is its capital, Lluanco/Luanco, a peaceful fishing village with its impeccable and colourful Clock Tower, its Church of Santa María on the coast itself, and its historic quarter, with its terraces, cider bars and restaurants where you can taste exquisite Cantabrian flavoured delicacies. <b Its Maritime Museum, the Island and hermitage of Carmen, its lighthouse, its port and its beach are some of its most characteristic features.
