The Town
Ribadesella has two main streets, the Gran Vía de Agustin Argüelles, and CalleComercio. In this part of Ribadesella, there are a few banks, pharmacies, restaurants/bars, stores, and newspaper stands. Here also lies the Casco Antiguo, where the old plaza is located, as well as Ribadesella’s church: Iglesia Parroquial de Sta. María Magdalena. In this part of town lie small stores of home made products, as well as the homes of Ribadesella’s inhabitants. The third part of Ribadesella consists of the Paseo Marítimo del Puerto, or the coast of the town that lies near the water. Today, this paseo is dedicated to the princess of Asturias, Dª Letizia Ortiz.
