The Coído of Bares

Curiosity · Mañón, Ortegal, A Coruña

Image of Mañón, not of the place itself.

A three-hundred-metre breakwater formed of heaped blocks that shelters the port of Bares; tradition attributes it to the Phoenicians, although the finds of amphorae and a necropolis point to a Roman origin.
