10Playa de las Catedrales (Beach of the Cathedrals), Galicia
Tucked away in the northwestern region of Galicia, the Beach of the Cathedrals is a natural wonder that feels straight out of a fantasy novel.
At low tide, the Atlantic Ocean reveals a series of towering rock arches and caves that resemble the gothic spires of a cathedral. You can walk beneath these stone formations, explore sea-carved tunnels, and watch as sunlight filters through the arches. It’s so otherworldly that UNESCO has debated protecting it as a heritage site. Pro tip: you must time your visit with the tides, as the beach disappears completely during high tide.
