Cabo Vidio is a geographical feature of the coast of Cudillero, in the parish of Oviñana, formed by a large coastal ledge with cliffs that exceed 100 meters high in some sections. It is located in front of the Bay of Biscay, in a very prominent point of the western coast of Asturias, next to the lighthouse of Cabo Vidio, which acts as a visual and scenic reference of the environment. The most striking feature of the place are its open views over the cliff line, the sea and the small coves and inlets of the coast. From the viewpoint you get a wide panoramic view of the coast, especially appreciated at sunset. Also noteworthy is the Iglesiona, a marine cavity modeled by wave erosion, which can be seen at low tide and summarizes well the dynamic character of this stretch of coastline. Its interest is not only scenic: all this strip is part of the Protected Landscape of the West Coast, a figure of protection that underlines its environmental and geological value. Cabo Vidio is one of the best known natural points of the council of Cudillero and appears regularly in the tourist guides of Asturias for the combination of cliffs, lighthouse, coastal geology and seascape.

La Concha de Artedo Beach is a coastal spot in the council of Cudillero, in Asturias, located on the western Cantabrian coast, next to Lamuño and San Martín de Luiña, around the coordinates 43.56762, -6.19198. It is a shell-shaped beach, with a length quoted in municipal and informative sources of between 680 and 760 meters, and an average width of approximately 55 meters.

The Uncín river also flows into it, coming from the brañas vaqueiras, which adds scenic interest and a small estuarine component to the whole. The beach is interesting for its width, for the contrast between high and low tide, and for being one of the most recognizable beaches in the council, with road access and seasonal services. The sources consulted place it within the Protected Landscape of the Western Coast and also link it with protection figures such as ZEPA and LIC, which reinforces its environmental relevance.

Playa del Silencio is a coastal spot in Cudillero, in the parish of Novellana and the surroundings of Castañeras, on the western coast of Asturias. It is a natural beach of pebbles and rock, also known as Playa d'El Gavieiru, wedged between quartzite cliffs that give it the appearance of an amphitheater open to the Bay of Biscay. Its length is around 500 meters, although the useful aspect varies with the tide. The most striking thing is its strong landscape and geomorphological value: a secluded cove, without immediate urbanization or direct road access to the sand, which retains a very little altered image. From the viewpoint and the access path you can see the shell-shaped beach, the rocky wall that protects it and the contrast between the sea, the boulders and the coastal vegetation. The interest of the visit is in the whole: abrupt coastal landscape, calm atmosphere and clear reading of the marine processes and the modeling of the cliffs.

In addition, the environment is included in the protected areas of western Asturias, which reinforces its environmental relevance. Because of its access on foot, its character of virgin beach and its great visual value, it is one of the most representative natural resources of the council of Cudillero.
