It's ugly, hot and dusty but a good place to practice your riding technique, well-knobbed tires recommended. I'm going gravel but it's tight

The Way of St. James also runs through here. I don't find the town particularly special, nor the beach particularly nice—too many stones in the sand. The cycling and hiking trails are well-developed, and almost every restaurant has free Wi-Fi.
