Animal watching<\/strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n

Asturias is a great spot for some good old-fashioned local, Iberian wildlife watching<\/strong><\/a>. Bears, wolves, deer, chamois, wildcats, genets, and otters are just a handful of species that call this Natural Paradise home. The brown bear stands out as one of the most eye-catching species you can spot here, because it\u2019s the largest land mammal on the Iberian Peninsula.<\/p>\n

Try your hand at bird- or marine-mammal watching (can you spot the whales and dolphins?), which are the other two parts of this trio of natural attractions.<\/p>\n

All along Dinosaur Coast<\/strong><\/a>, as it\u2019s come to be known, beautiful beaches such as Tazones or Mer\u00f3n in Villaviciosa, or La Griega in Colunga, and cliffs such as the Tere\u00f1es in Ribadesella, will reveal a period of Earth\u2019s history that\u2019s totally different to the one we live in today.<\/p>\n
