This welcoming and jovial fishing village was for centuries one of the most important commercial and fishing ports in Asturias. The beauty of its beaches and its charming medieval old town have made Llanes a favourite setting for film-makers and a top tourist destination in Spain. 

The perfectly preserved historic-artistic site of Llanes invites you to wander through its cobbled streets and travel back to the late Middle Ages, when the town was a hub of commercial and port activity. Numerous palaces and emblazoned villas join the medieval tower and wall, the Gothic Basilica of Santa María or the Chapel of La Magdalena to form a very rich architectural heritage. More recent works also stand out, such as the elegant modernist Casino or the Cubos de la Memoria, the breakwater painted by the artist Agustín Ibarrola, which has been colouring the port breakwater since 2001.         

It is not surprising, then, that film clappers have been regular visitors to this municipality. Up to eighteen feature films and several series have been shot in the town and its surroundings. Thanks to the LLANES DE CINE initiative , it is possible to follow the route of all the filming locations and to go deeper, by means of the explanatory panels, with stills and information about the films. 

As if the beauty of Llanes were not enough, the natural surroundings of the town offer a multitude of activities to enjoy it from land, sea and air. The spectacular cliffs and beaches of the area can be explored on PADDLE-SURF boards or in a SEA KAYAK. By land, the wide network of paths allows you to enjoy WALKING or HORSE RIDING along the coastline of the plains, even reaching places as unique as the BUFONES. Lastly, taking a TROLINE from the heights to get to know the territory from the air is also a highly recommended option.
