West: Cudillero
One day for the village and another for the coastline around it. Cabo Vidio and Playa del Silencio need a check on access and the forecast.
Region by region
Asturias, at your own pace.
Asturias works for a two- to four-day getaway with sea, villages and green hills, all within short distances. Llanes and Cudillero make good bases for exploring the coast on foot, with a harbour, a beach or a clifftop for each day.
How to approach this getaway
The green ends where the sea begins.
Two bases, two ways to explore the coast: Cudillero for the west and Llanes for the east. They aren't two neighbourhoods of the same trip. In two or three days, pick one area and save the rest for next time.
East: Llanes
Town, harbour, the Paseo de San Pedro clifftop walk and beaches. A third day lets you add the surroundings without packing the day too tight.
The coast sets the pace
Have an indoor plan ready, check each beach's rules and leave room for the weather. Tides and swell are part of the trip.

What you're probably wondering.
How many days do you need for a trip to Asturias?+
Two or three days let you see one stretch of coast properly. Rather than splitting the trip across lots of villages, pick one base, such as Llanes in the east or Cudillero in the west, and explore from there.
When is the best time to visit Asturias?+
May to October. In summer, highs on the coast are around 22-24 °C and it rains on about 7 days a month, compared with about 12 in winter. Pack a waterproof whatever the season, because the weather can change within the same day.
Do you need a car to get around Asturias?+
Not for the villages: once you're there, Llanes and Cudillero are easy to explore on foot. For beaches, viewpoints and rural houses, yes, because public transport barely reaches the beaches and coastal paths. Llanes is 108 km from Oviedo and Cudillero 63 km.
