The coastal Path at Poo

Walking along the coastal path, you can see the beautiful beach at Poo as well as the island of La Almenada. This whole area, together with the beach of San Martín is really beautiful. Close to this beach and very close to the sea you can find the ruins of an old hermitage. Depending on the tide, you can either see a wide stretch of beach or a group of islands.

Here the film has been shot: EL ORFANATO 2007
