Set aside the familiar images of Spain’s sunbaked landscapes and sweltering beaches. The Costa Verde surprises even the most seasoned travellers with its dramatic, verdant coastline and pleasantly balmy days. Meaning “Green Coast”, the name once referred to the Asturian shoreline but is now used to describe the entire Atlantic stretch from Galicia to the French border.
The diverse landscape of Spain’s northern coast encompasses white sandy beaches, crystal waters and forested headlands, as well as picture-perfect fishing villages and thoroughly modern cities. It offers something for everyone, from seafood lovers to adrenaline junkies – not to mention those in need of a relaxing sun-and-sand break.
