English The main town centre
Foz's fishing harbour and town centre are among the most common arrival areas for hotels, apartments and holiday homes within the town.
Asturias Airport OVD → Foz · Lugo
From Asturias Airport to the Lugo coast in one direct journey
Foz is already in Galicia, across the regional border and within A Mariña Lucense. The road distance is around 117–125 km, with a typical journey time of 1 h 10 to 1 h 40 min. Zonetransfers publishes indicative prices from €149 for 1–4 passengers and from €199 for 5–8 passengers.
from €149 1–4 passengers

Foz changes the logic of routes from OVD: the journey ends in Galicia
Unlike Oviedo, Gijón or Cangas de Onís, a transfer to Foz leaves Asturias and continues along the Cantabrian coast into the province of Lugo. The A-8 provides a continuous route towards A Mariña before the final approach to Foz.
Crossing the regional border does not mean changing the main route
The route follows the coast westwards and enters Galicia before reaching Foz. The A-8 connection to the municipality provides a straightforward approach to the town without turning the journey into a succession of local roads.
What does change towards the end is the exact location within a municipality whose coastline extends well beyond the main town centre.
In Foz, it is important to distinguish the town from other parts of the municipality
The Ría de Foz is home to the harbour, seafront promenade and A Rapadoira, but the municipality's coastline continues towards Llas, Peizás, Arealonga and other beaches. Turismo de Galicia records almost 15 km of sandy beaches around the estuary and along the Foz coastline.
Beach within the urban area
A Rapadoira lies next to the mouth of the estuary and the Paseo de Laredo. It is a distinct reference point from the harbour, even though both areas form part of the same urban centre.
Fazouro, Nois and other settlements are not central Foz
The municipality's railway network has stops at Foz, Marzán, Fazouro, Nois and Cangas, illustrating how much territory can be covered by a booking whose destination is simply entered as “Foz”.
Public transport turns a straightforward coastal journey into a chain of connections
Aena does not list Foz among the direct bus destinations from Asturias Airport. Airport bus services run to Avilés, Gijón and Oviedo; reaching Foz without a car then requires further connections.
| Option | Journey arrangement | Current reference |
|---|---|---|
| Pre-booked transfer | Airport → Foz by road in a single vehicle | Approximately 1 h 10–1 h 40 |
| Bus | Requires changes; one current combination goes via Avilés and Ribadeo before reaching Foz | Around 6 h |
| Rail | The airport has no railway station, so you first need to reach the rail network | Current combinations take around 5 h 45 |
The bus station is not necessarily close to your accommodation
The Concello places the bus station at Cervantes, s/n, in Foz. Arriving there completes the intercity journey, but you may still need to travel onwards to another settlement or beach within the municipality.
A useful clue to where your journey ends: Foz has five railway stops within the municipality
The Concello de Foz lists railway stops at Foz, Marzán, Fazouro, Nois and Cangas. For a transfer landing page, this is more useful than a generic tourist description: it shows that the municipality's name alone does not identify a single arrival point.
Before booking
Check the exact location of your accommodation
A hotel near A Rapadoira, a property in Fazouro and accommodation close to Nois are all within the same municipality, but they do not have the same final drop-off point. Entering the correct destination prevents a reference for Foz town from being treated as valid for every location within the municipality.
Foz in summer: the coastline matters more than the town centre
Summer brings increased activity to the municipality's beaches. A Rapadoira is the main urban beach, while the coastline continues towards Llas, Peizás and other coastal areas. This makes it particularly important to distinguish between a drop-off in the town centre and one in a beach area.
Beach beside the estuary and town centre
The beach has accessible facilities and forms part of Foz's urban area, so reaching it involves a different final approach from beaches located further from the town centre.
Other beaches are spread along several kilometres of coast
Turismo de Galicia lists Llas, Peizás, Arealonga, Areoura, As Polas and Xuncos among Foz's beaches, alongside others. If your accommodation is in one of these areas, make sure you book with that exact destination.
Specific questions about the Asturias–Foz journey
Is Foz in Asturias?
No. Foz is in the province of Lugo, Galicia. The transfer starts at Asturias Airport and crosses into Galicia before reaching A Mariña Lucense.
Is there a direct bus from Asturias Airport to Foz?
There is no direct connection between the two. Aena connects the airport with Avilés, Gijón and Oviedo. Current connections to Foz require changes; one option travels via Avilés and Ribadeo.
Does Foz have a railway station?
Yes. In fact, the Concello lists several railway stops within the municipality: Foz, Marzán, Fazouro, Nois and Cangas. The airport, by contrast, has no railway station.
Does the published price for Foz also apply to Fazouro or Nois?
It should not be assumed. The published reference applies to Foz, and Zonetransfers confirms the final price before booking. If your destination is in another part of the municipality, this should be stated explicitly so that the appropriate service can be priced.
How can I travel from Foz to Asturias Airport without a car?
Public transport options require changes. The current fastest option without a car takes around four hours by train and bus via Luarca, so it is advisable to check the exact timetables before arranging a departure flight.
If Foz is part of a wider journey around northern Spain
An airport transfer covers one pick-up point and one destination. For itineraries with multiple stops, hourly availability or onward travel around Asturias, a different type of service may be more suitable.
