NOT TO BE MISSED View
The wild and fascinating Galicia is a spectacle of Atlantic landscapes that you absolutely must not miss if you love sailing. The Galician coast, rugged and authentic, is dotted with islands, deep rías, and fishing villages overlooking enchanting bays, where the sand is clear and the pines reach the sea. For those who wish to explore the mainland more deeply, it is advisable to organize an excursion in the Atlantic Islands of Galicia National Park, a protected archipelago that includes natural gems such as the Cíes Islands, famous for the Rodas beach, often cited among the most beautiful in Europe, and for the trails that cross coastal forests and breathtaking views. To the south, the area of the Rías Baixas reveals tranquil and welcoming bays, ideal for boat stops, snorkeling, and swimming in surprisingly crystal-clear waters. Don't miss a visit to the Isla de Ons, with its maze of trails, imposing cliffs, and local cuisine based on simple and delicious Galician octopus. Then you arrive at A Illa de Arousa, flat and poetic, connected to the mainland by a bridge, where the maritime tradition coexists with untouched natural landscapes and small golden beaches hidden among pine forests and rocks. The smaller islands and coves of the Rías de Muros e Noia will be perfect for those seeking a quiet swim or wanting to explore authentic villages like Combarro, suspended between sea and granite. The journey ends in the north, along the coast of the Mariña Lucense, where the Playa de las Catedrales enchants with its rock arches sculpted by the sea and wind, and where nature manifests itself with strength and poetry. In Galicia, between ocean and land, every corner is an invitation to slow down, explore, and be surprised.
