Lemoiz is a beautiful coastal village of rural character located in the historical territory of Bizkaia, within the Uribe Kosta region.

Urizar, Andraka and Armintza neighbourhoods form the municipality with its striking cliffs alternating between bays and beaches.

We'll start the trip in Andraka neighbourhood, located in the countryside of the town, up on a road from Plentzia to Mungia. Of rural atmosphere, it is formed by scattered country houses. There is a road that leads to Urizar, where the Romanesque church of Santa María, with a large and beautiful portico is the outstanding element. Going down to Armintza, located in a natural cove, near the sea, we'll visit the church of Santo Tomás as well as the municipality's port, which is home to pleasure boats.

There is a beautiful stone beach in Armintza, very frequented by scuba diving and fishing lovers. Lemoiz holds many festivals all through the year, the main ones are the festivals of the Virgen del Carmen in mid-July and the festival of Andra Mari, held in mid-August.
