The cliffs at la Ensenada del Gordo and the field of Bufones:
Access to these is via a footpath located to the east of Cué. These are a magnificent example of typical limestone cliffs, deeply eroded by the sea. At high tide the waves hitting the base of the cliffs produce one of the largest impacts on this section of the coast. Nearby there is an active Bufón, which can be seen from the lookout point at La Boriza, next to the municipal golf course. On the right of the cliffs, if you walk to the end of the cape, you can see the magnificent beach of Ballota and the islet of the name.
The bufones de Arenillas:
These bufones are located to the north of the village of Puertas de Vidiago. It is recommended that you leave the car here and take the pathway which leads to the cememtary. From here you head west. This field of bufones has appeared in many a film and story. It forms part of the coastal path, a walking route which runs through this part of the Llaniscan coast.
The bufones de Santiuste:
These are found in the most easterly part of the flat coastal plain of Llanes. Only a short distance from the beach at la Franca. These bufones are one of the most spectacular formations to be found in limestone cliffs. They are created in the cliffs next to the sea via little cracks in the limestone rock. The bufones comprise a cave or chamber in the rock that leads vertically upwards and here, under great pressure, seawater and air are expelled, due to the force of the tide. As a result howling jets of water shoot up to 30 metres in the air, a feature unique to this part of the coast.
The field of Bufones at Pría y Poza de las Grallas:
Access can be gained via the village of Llames, towards the west of the beach. Here a pathway of about 100 metres in length goes off towards the bufones. You can get to the sumit of la Poza de las Grallas over the field of bufones, although there is no well defined path. The vertical walls of the site are used by many sea birds as a nesting site.A walking route, called the Route of the Bufones, leaves the field of bufones and goes towards the beach at Villanueva and the beach at Cuevas del Mar. Later the route returns to Llames, going in a big circle and passing through the local villages.
The mouth of the river Purón:
The mouth of the river is situated to the east of the village of Andrín. The best place to see this tidal estuary is fom the cliffs on the right hand side , close to the coastal path, which comes from Puertas de Vidiago. A typical river of the cantabric zone, the river Purón is both born and enters the sea in the borough of Llanes. The birth or source of the river can be found at the feet of the Sierra del Cuera, only 15 kilometres from its mouth. It is possible to walk the route of the river Purón, beginning in the village of Purón.
Beaches, the sea and water temperature:
The tide goes through a full cycle every 12 hours, more or less, making a total of two low tides and two high tides every 24 hours. There is about 4 metres difference between the low and high tides, when there is a full moon and 1.5 metres when there is a new moon.
