Is A Barrosa a good beach for children?

Does A Barrosa have a Blue Flag?

No. A Barrosa is not listed with a Blue Flag in the MITECO data. The nearest Blue Flag beach is Espiñeira (Sanxenxo), 5 km away in a straight line. Not having one does not make A Barrosa worse: the award certifies services and water quality, not scenery.
