Playa de San Lorenzo is a popular beach in Gijon, offering a mile-long sandy expanse for activities like surfing, swimming, and sunbathing. The beach features a 4 km long promenade known as el Muro, leading to city amenities and notable landmarks such as the Tourist Office and the Escalerona. Visitors can also explore artistic sculptures like Sombras de Luz and monuments like the Reloj de Sol and la Madre del Emigrante.
A beautiful beach! My husband and I had a few hours before our flight and stumbled onto this beach for a stroll: nice promenade along the beach for those who may want to keep their feet off the sand; big sand beach and great views.
Victoria C — Google review
The water feels quite cold, and the sand near the shoreline is firm and compact due to the moisture. There are plenty of surfers out enjoying the waves, as well as several people paddleboarding nearby.
Serdar A — Google review
I heard that St. Lorenzo Beach in Gijon is the busiest beach in Asturias and I am guessing is on summer time. The beach is really long and beautiful with golden sand and high waves. You can see many people playing sand sports, specially surfing since early morning every day from all the surf schools along the boulevard. It is amazing and very relaxing!!
Maria F — Google review
Gijón and the region of Asturias are beautiful and extremely green and lush, unlike most of Spain. Playa de San Lorenzo is definitely the city's centerpiece and for good reason. There's a nice promenade if you don't want to actually go down to the beach and a large sandy beach if you do. The water was very clean.
Jennifer S — Google review
Nice beach in front of the city. Monitor tide, as the beach can be covered almost entirely by water at times, while during low tide there is lots of space available. You can also rent surf boards In surf schools nearby.
Fabio B — Google review
Beautiful city beach, great for a relaxing stroll or just chilling, and you are almost certainly guaranteed a lungful of P10 particles or some other pollutants from the very nearby industrial zone. A shame, but hey, who's gonna do anything about it? Certainly not the local politicians..... Visit Chernobyl instead

Nestled just 5 kilometers southeast of Gijón's bustling center, the Jardín Botánico Atlántico is a serene 25-acre oasis that invites visitors to immerse themselves in the beauty of nature. This modern botanical garden showcases over 2,000 plant varieties, many native to Spain's northern coast and Atlantic regions.
Definitely worth getting out of the city for and there's a cheap bus near Playa de San Lorenzo that makes it very accessible. If you've spent much time in southern Spain you'll love how green and vibrant it is. Plan to spend at least 2 hours if you want to see everything and not rush. The paths are clearly marked and they have information about the various plants. As with everywhere in Spain, wear comfortable shoes.
Jennifer S — Google review
Very big botanical garden. Admission is less than 3€ for an adult and your ticket stays valid throughout the whole day. There's also a 'kids forest' with playground. You can't buy food here, so bring a picnic if you're planning to stay long.
Ludo R — Google review
Fantastic botanical garden you must visit. Low entrance fee (free for children under 12y), there are a lot of interesting flowers and trees. We saw many gardeners take care about the garden. Children have an interesting game inside. We really like it!
Radek D — Google review
Beautiful and relaxing expansive gardens Myself and a friend visited on a weekday in August via a public bus from Gijon. Map provided on entry (with English text). Three recommended walking routes: short route, long route, natural forests route. Biological collections split into: Cantabrian environment, Plant factory, La Isla garden, Atlantic route. Hot & cold drinks vending machines at entrance. Cash only. Numerous toilets and drinking fountains. I recommend taking your own food as the small cafe only sells drinks and croissants. Sound and light show in the evening.
Jon — Google review
A wonderful place for families and nature lovers! We visited the Atlantic Botanical Garden in Gijón and were truly impressed. The park is huge — you need several visits to explore everything properly. The children’s playground is fantastic — safe, creative, and a real highlight for kids. The garden itself is divided into themed areas with forests, ponds, a maze, and even historical buildings. It’s well maintained, with clear paths, picnic spots, and lots of space to enjoy nature. Tickets are very affordable: kids under 11 go free, adults pay only a few euros, and there are yearly passes if you want to come back — which you definitely will! Highly recommended for families, nature lovers, and anyone looking for a peaceful and educational day out.
Adik K — Google review
These botanical gardens are beautiful and a must visit if you enjoy spending time in nature and learning about botany. A lot of the information is also in English which helps. I didn't expect it to be so massive so plan to spend at least 2 hours here as they close off areas 15 mins to close.

Playa de Poniente, located west of Gijon City Center, offers a laid-back and tranquil beach experience away from the crowds. The calm waters and soft sand make it perfect for a relaxing day by the sea. This small, artificial sandy beach provides lounge chairs, water sports, and protected swimming areas suitable for families and seniors. It also features necessary services and even has a playground in the sand.
Great beach, you're so close to everything, cafes, restaurants, bars, ice cream sellers, souvenir shops, etc. A nice stretch of beach to walk along, the waves are pretty much non existent and kids can paddle quite safely. There are bigger waves a little further out for those of you that like to surf. The tide comes in quite high, so you have to be quick and keep moving back towards the wall. It's a fun place for all the family.
Darren W — Google review
One of the popular beaches close to the center of Gijón, this beach is located to the west, making it a great spot to watch the sunset. The beach features wide, soft sandy stretches, perfect for sunbathing or taking a walk. The waves are not too strong, making it ideal for swimming or surfing.

Lovely beach, but got politely told off for taking our dog on the beach despite no signs saying they're prohibited...? Is it the locals ruling the roost? We did pickup 2 other dogs messes off the beach however.

Mark K — Google review
Playa de poniente is the small beach in Gijón. Just as sunny, just as windy and we found the water about just as cold as Playa San Lorenzo. Playa de poniente is a bit quieter, a bit more taken over by older people and the water seems to be a little calmer too, owing perhaps to the size of the bay. We'd recommend you bring water shoes because there's a layer of small, sharp pebbles at about knee's depth in the water.

Public beach
Playa de San Lorenzo is the main beach of Gijon, Asturias. It's a large crescent-shaped sandy beach that gets crowded during July and August. The beach offers facilities like showers, lifeguards, and a promenade with stalls in the summer. While it's well-maintained and clean, it's not ideal for swimming due to intense waves, making it popular among surfers.
Amazing coastline to walk through. You can tike it from San Pedro Church all the way until getting to the end. Either by the sand or by the sidewalk. There many interest places to stop by and enjoy it. If you go to Gijon, this is one of the most charming places to visit
Riury R — Google review
It is one of the largest and most popular beaches in Gijón, located close to the city center, making it a frequent destination for visitors. The beach stretches for approximately 1.5 kilometers, featuring a wide sandy shoreline. During the summer, many people come to sunbathe or swim. The waves here are moderately strong, making it a well-known spot for surfing. Alongside the beach, there is a promenade, providing an excellent environment for walking or cycling while enjoying the sea view. The surrounding area is filled with cafés, restaurants, and sports facilities.
Seokjin H — Google review
The beach in Gijón is a great place to relax. It features clean golden sand and a wide shoreline, so everyone can find a comfortable spot. For just 2 euros per day, you can rent a sunbed and enjoy the sun in comfort. At the beginning of summer, the water temperature was around 20–21°C, which made swimming quite refreshing but still enjoyable. There are plenty of freshwater showers available on the beach, which is very convenient after swimming. In addition, there are many cafes and shops nearby — perfect for grabbing a bite to eat or picking up any essentials without going far from the beach. An ideal spot for a beach day — whether you're a tourist or a local.

Situated in a beautiful environment of gardens and ponds, it is located near the Football Stadium of The Molinon. Visitors can also explore the Museu del Pueblu de Asturies nearby or enjoy the popular Gijon flea market held every Sunday.
A fantastic playground (actually, a whole bunch of them). Endless fun for the kids. Well-kept and spacious. The only thing I would improve is the outdoor gym. It's pathetic. :-(
Anna I — Google review
I recently visited Parque de Isabel la Católica. The green spaces are pleasant and attractive. My visit became very unpleasant when I walked through the Aviary area! There was an obviously emotionally distressed macaw in one of the cages. The poor animal had picked out all of its breast and a lot of its wing feathers. This poor animal needs immediate attention by a veterinarian and be removed from such a cruel environment. Macaws are intelligent and long-lived animals and should be properly cared for both physically and emotionally.

The Railway Museum of Asturias preserves Asturias' historical railway heritage. The exhibits explore the industrial revolution, technological development and social impact of railways on the region.
A very interesting insight into the development of the rail network, especially in Asturias. Based at an old station, it has lots of locomotives and carriages to look at, plus an indoor section covering all things train related from tickets to hats! Free entrance and well worth an hour of your time.
Patrick B — Google review
The Gijón Railway Museum (Museo del Ferrocarril de Asturias) is a fascinating and well-curated destination that brings the region’s rich railway history to life. Located in the atmospheric old North Station near Poniente Beach, the museum impresses from the start with its spacious grounds filled with historic tracks, platforms, and beautifully preserved buildings. The collection is truly remarkable, featuring more than 100 locomotives, carriages, and wagons from different eras and track gauges, including impressive steam, diesel, and electric engines—some of which still run during special events. The exhibits do a great job of showing how the railway shaped Asturias’s industry and society, with plenty of interesting artifacts, photographs, and interactive displays to keep visitors engaged. The museum also has a restoration workshop and a rich archive, making it a valuable resource for both enthusiasts and casual visitors. Whether you’re a train lover, a history buff, or just looking for a unique outing in Gijón, this museum offers a memorable and educational experience that’s suitable for all ages.

The Museo Ferrocarril offers a thoughtful look into railway history, featuring a collection of well-preserved locomotives and carriages with clear historical context. Admission is free, making it an accessible option for travellers and locals alike. The staff are knowledgeable and happy to answer questions, which enhances the experience. Most displays include descriptions translated into English, so international visitors can appreciate the exhibits without difficulty. The ability to board some of the trains adds a hands-on element, and the museum’s setting lends authenticity. While not overly flashy, it’s a well-curated space for those interested in trains or industrial history, and the free entry makes it easy to recommend for a casual visit.

The museum focuses on the development of railway transportation, which played a significant role in the industrial progress of Asturias. Opened in 1998, it is located in part of the old Gijón North Railway Station. The museum showcases trains from various eras, including steam locomotives, electric locomotives, and diesel trains. It highlights not only the railway history of Asturias but also the importance of railways in modern Spain, making it a popular destination for railway enthusiasts and those interested in the region's industrial history.

The Railway Museum of Gijon s located in the old station building, filled with the spirit of transportation and the power of past cutting-edge technologies.

Beach
Serín and La Cagonera Beach are rural beaches located just a few kilometers from the urban center, offering tranquility and natural beauty. Access to the beach can be challenging due to steep slopes, but the wild and clean environment makes it worth the effort. However, it's important to note that there may be restrictions on accessing the beach due to risk of landslides. The area is known for its good energy and magical atmosphere, especially during quieter times like winter when the beach is empty.
Beautiful!! If you're going by foot from the center it's a bit of a treck. Totally worth it! We did it as a hike starting from the Alsas so it's a little long, but sososo worth it and so beautiful (especially if you continue to the end at plays ñora). We went in the off season and it started to rain, so we didn't get to enjoy the water, but still beautiful. It gets pretty (very) steep to get to the sand, making it superrrrr dangerous to walk in the rain (and assuming if you're with wet sandals coming from the beach) because the path is made of stone. From what I've heard from friends, it's known to be a nude beach, so be prepared and most importantly be respectful :)

It usually has strong waves with rocky ground. The accesses are very poorly maintained. It is not accessible for strollers or people with reduced mobility. Serín Beach is a straight beach, whose bed combines rocks and thick golden sand. Due to its somewhat remote location and the fact that it is shaded, it is rarely attended by bathers, so it is sometimes used by nudists. For its part, La Cagonera beach is shaped like a shell and is located after the previous one.

You can park in the parking lot indicated on Google Maps; there are also spaces along the road if parking runs out. It's a nudist beach! I didn't know that when I went there.

(Translated by Google) A beach with difficult access, so it's better if you go down with beachcombers. The path isn't very long, but it's steep and there's a small cut you'll have to jump over. A quiet beach with beautiful views. It has coarse sand and rocks. It's nudist, but you can't if you don't want to. You just have to respect the water. Clear, pebbly water. There are no bathrooms or anything nearby. Small parking area. (Original) Playa con accesos poco fácil, si bajas con playeros mejor. No es muy largo el camino pero está muy enfilado hacia bajo y un trozo con un pequeño corte que tendrás que saltar. Playa con vistas preciosas y tranquila. Es de arena gruesa y rocas.

BIOPARC Acuario de Gijón is a modern facility located in Explanada de Poniente, offering an impressive collection of over 4000 marine species, including sharks, eels, and anemones. It is the only aquarium in Spain where visitors can observe all five groups of vertebrates. The exhibition is regularly updated to provide a high-quality experience for guests. Additionally, the aquarium features species from local marine environments as well as those from further south like Australasia.
Very nice aquarium. Not the biggest or the most modern. But they had a lot of species I have not seen in other aquariums.

My toddler loved this aquarium and it was as they say “fun for the whole family”. It’s not super big but who cares, it seems like all the animals had clean habitats and they were some really nice exhibits. The big tank with the sharks And the sea turtles was really amazing.

I didn't expect much from this place, but I was pleasantly surprised. It's good on different levels. It starts from kind English speaking staff. Then you start the rout. And they managed to gently immerse you, little by little, into the bio world. Whoever designed the park did an incredible job. "Well, that was very nice. Probably that's it", you think. And then you get to another level of the park, that is even more impressive. Then you think, "For sure, now that's the end. What else could they show". But again they manage to show even more. By far that was the best place I visited in Gijón. And I will definitely visit again. Also it has areas where you can sit and just relax watching the aquarium. And there are several clean bathrooms along the route.

This place is amazing- my husband uses a mobility scooter and was easy to get around. Much more to see than appears at first sight. Lots of useful explanations at each exhibit. Can also recommend the cafe. Capuccino best we have had in Spain! You can use the cafe without visiting the rest - but you would be missing out on a spectacular couple of hours.

(Translated by Google) I don't doubt their professionalism but they have very little ethics and morals. I know it is not their obligation but they kept a deposit of x euros, after justifying the loss of my job. Money that I needed. Since in these times it is needed and even more so with what is coming my way. Anyway, Gerardo, I hope you are morally calm. I don't think that money would solve much for you, but it had fixed me for half a month. All the best By the way, I'm glad I didn't buy the vehicle I was destined to throw €25,000 into the scrapyard. DO NOT BUY THE VW MULTIVAN TEAM WITH 180hp CHANGED TURBOS. FRENCH IMPORT. 7 OWNERS. VERIFIED IN DGT AND CARFAX DATABASE. THE ENGINES IN THAT VW ARE DESTINED TO GRIP. THEY SELL IT TO YOU AS IT HAS HAD ONE OWNER AND IT'S A LIE. THEY TRY TO SCAM YOU. The earnest money would be kept if there was a signed contract but in this case there was no contract therefore the earnest money could be returned. (Original) No dudo de su profesionalidad pero Ética y moral tienen bien poca. Sé que no es de su obligación pero se quedaron con una señal de x euros, después de justificarles la pérdida de mi trabajo. Un dinero que me hacía falta. Ya que en estos tiempos hace falta y más con la que se me viene encima. En fin Gerardo espero que estes tranquilo moralmente. No creo que ese dinero a ti te solucionara mucho pero a mi me tenia arreglado medio mes. Un saludo Por cierto me alegro de no haber comprado el vehículo estaba destinado a tirar 25000€ al desguace NO COMPREIS LA VW MULTIVAN TEAM DE 180cv TURBOS CAMBIADOS. IMPORTACION FRANCESA. 7 DUEÑOS. COMPROBADO EN BASE DE DATOS DGT Y CARFAX. LOS MOTORES DE ESA VW ESTAN DESTINADOS A GRIPAR. ELLOS TE LO VENDEN COMO QUE HA TENIDO UN DUEÑO Y ES MENTIRA. INTENTAN ESTAFARTE. Se quedarian las arras si hubiera un contrato firmado pero en este caso no habia ningun contrato por lo tanto las arras se podrian devolver.

(Translated by Google) If you're looking for a great plan in Gijón, the Party Boat is awesome. It's an 11-meter, two-story trimaran, super comfortable and stable, perfect for enjoying the sea. We had an incredible day, so we were able to sunbathe and take a nice swim. The boat has plenty of space; upstairs you can relax in the sun, and downstairs there's shade and a great atmosphere. The music, cold drinks, and the vibe made everything even better. The crew of 10 were always attentive, making sure nothing was missing. If you're looking for a different plan with friends, this boat is amazing. We'll definitely come back! (Original) Si buscas un planazo en Gijón, el Party Boat es brutal.

(Translated by Google) It's very nice and well patrolled. The lifeguards are very friendly and attentive to everything. The beach is made of coarse sand and stones, and is only accessible at low tide, because at high tide it disappears, especially on the right side (seen from the parking lot). There's a parking lot at the top with a traffic light to control entry and exit, as the last section is a single lane. You can walk down the ramp or the ramp and stairs from the parking lot to the beach. (Original) Está muy bien y muy bien vigilada. Los vigilantes son muy amables y están pendientes de todo. La playa es de arena gruesa y piedras y sólo cuando la marea está baja, porque al subir..... desaparece, sobre todo la parte derecha (vista desde el parking).
