There is also a parallel path to the wooden walkways, which branches off to the right at the height of the sports field and leads directly along the water. After approx. 500m it meets the wooden walkways again. Very beautiful view of the Ría de Ferrol.

Behind the bridge, slightly above the promenade, lies the "Flor de Mayo". You can get very good coffee and delicious tostadas here.

An ancient but very well-preserved and visitable monastery, very pretty and small, so you can see it in just a few minutes.

A very well-preserved ancient monastery that can be visited (I don't know the opening hours) is located on the English Way to Santiago. A quick visit is recommended (it's small but beautiful), and then continue up the path on the left.

An impressive waterfall at any time of year. Until you reach the point, you don't expect it, although the path to get there is already very beautiful and that alone would be worth the effort. You can descend along some paths in average condition, but with the humidity of the waterfall, they can be slippery. Be very careful ⚠️

The Xuvia magnolia is the most unique tree in this city. Two hundred years of history in which this large species resists the passage of time from its location, on the Xuvia seafront. And speaking of the location, it is worth highlighting the owners of the land on which the magnolia is located, for the facilities they have always given to the Narón City Council to be able to maintain this tree in optimal conditions. It is not easy to find such unique species in the area. Proof of this is the fact that the Xuvia magnolia is part of the Catalogue of Unique Trees of the Xunta de Galicia. The Provincial Council of A Coruña itself presented the book "A Magnolia de Santa Rita e a Cultura verde de Narón" in Narón, published by the aforementioned administration. The authors of this publication: Carlos Rodríguez Dacal, María Rodríguez García Garabal and Tomás Casal Pita have carried out intense research work, with the collaboration of institutions and private individuals, to publicize this tree, if possible, the most representative of our municipality and which shines in all its splendor on the Paseo Matítimo de Xuvia, near the bridge that borders the neighboring municipality of Neda.
