Laxe (Galician pronunciation: [ˈlaʃe]) is a municipality of Spain in the Province of A Coruña, in the autonomous community of Galicia. It is situated in the sheltered Cabanas bay area, meaning that Laxe's expansive sandy beaches are well-sheltered from Atlantic winds.

Laxe's average temperatures vary greatly, with an average winter-time high of 10-12 celsius, compared to highs of 31-33 celsius in June–July.[1]
