The beach resort and marina of Sada is situated in the [[Ria de Betanzos]] four miles due east of [[La Coruna]] in [[NW Spain]]. It is a popular tourist centre with some good beaches nearby, but its main attraction for the visiting yachtsman is its large, modern marina away from the bustle and crowds of La Coruña round the corner. A more recent attraction is Casper the friendly dolphin, reported in 2009 as making regular trips to the harbour and often escorting arriving yachts into the marina. | The beach resort and marina of Sada is situated in the [[Ria de Betanzos]] four miles due east of [[La Coruna]] in [[NW Spain]].
