Mera Beach

Mera is one of the most popular beaches in the whole city, quiet during the week but absolutely packed on weekends. A wide and usually very clean beach, except when there's a swell. The water is normally quite cold because the beach is open to the Ria de A Coruña. Only 15 km from La Coruña, it is one of the best beaches around, divided into three areas: The main where the port is, which is the busiest, the middle which is quieter and protected from the wind, and the Espiñeiro, which is small and secluded (not many people go because access and parking is complicated).
