Ideas for Rías Baixas

Boating in the Rías Baixas

The Rías Baixas are wide, sheltered Atlantic inlets in southern Galicia, with fishing towns, mussel rafts and white-sand beaches. Boat days explore the rías of Vigo, Pontevedra and Arousa or head out to the Cíes and Ons islands of the Atlantic Islands National Park.

Where to go by boat

  • Cíes Islands

    National park islands at the mouth of the Ría de Vigo, with the white Rodas beach.

  • Ons

    Island off the Ría de Pontevedra with beaches and a small village.

  • Baiona

    Historic harbour town below the walls of the Monterreal fortress.

  • Illa de Arousa

    Low island in the Ría de Arousa, linked to the mainland by a bridge.

Tip: Sailing and anchoring in the waters of the Atlantic Islands National Park require prior authorisation, so apply well ahead, and expect cool water, tides and sometimes fog.
