Gorgeous Spanish beach so much like Hawaii even tourists want to ‘gatekeep’ it

A viral TikTok video of a “Hawaii of Spain” beach has sparked a debate among tourists, with some begging to know its location and others asking to “gatekeep” it to preserve its beauty.

Influencers The Vacation Twins, who have more than 16,000 followers, shared a stunning video showcasing what they call the “prettiest beach in Spain.”

The footage reveals an idyllic, uncrowded sandy beach, framed by lush green hills and crystal-clear azure waters.

Labelled as the “Hawaii of Spain” in their video caption, the clip has sparked curiosity among viewers clamouring to discover this secret paradise.

Some fans, however, are imploring the twins to keep the location under wraps to preserve its tranquillity.

The serene spot in question is Playa de Torimbia, one of the many breathtaking beaches along the Asturias region’s coastline on Spain’s north-western edge.

Often referred to as “Green Spain”, Asturias boasts a moist, temperate climate that nurtures verdant landscapes, dramatic mountains, and pristine shores like Playa del Silencio – the Beach of Silence.

Nestled in Asturias’ western reaches, Playa del Silencio lives up to its name, offering a tranquil retreat where cliffs embrace the sea, creating a gentle symphony of waves.

The website Asturias.com describes it saying: “Its name says it all, Playa del Silencio is a silent place where the cliffs close in on themselves, turning the waves of the surroundings into a subtle lullaby […] The protective cliffs, scattered islets on the shore and the special quality and colour of its waters are combined.”

Asturias boasts the picturesque cities of Gijon and Oviedo, as well as a plethora of quaint fishing villages.

Tucked away in Spain’s northwest, Oviedo emerges as an undiscovered jewel ripe for exploration.

A culinary adventure is essential when visiting the town, where the local fare, especially its famed cheeses, promises to tantalise the taste buds of food lovers.

Cudillero is arguably the crown jewel among these, famed for its brightly coloured houses.

The Vacation Twins were also captivated by Cudillero’s charm during their visit, which they documented in a TikTok video, dubbing it “the most charming village in Spain”.

Their footage showcasing the harbour’s crystal-clear waters has attracted over 56,000 likes.
