Illa de Santa Comba

📍 Ferrol

A small tidal island off Covas crowned by a hermitage, beside the remains of an Iron Age castro. At low tide you can walk across the sand; the setting between Ponzos and Santa Comba beaches is magical.

An islet crowned by a small chapel that, at low tide, joins the shore across the sand. A magical image of Ferrol's coastline.
