Stretching over 35 kilometers from Cape Silleiro to Arcade, its beauty is both expansive and intimate. The Cies Islands guard its western entrance, standing sentinel within the Atlantic Islands National Park.

This estuary, bordered by the Morrazo Peninsula to the north and the Bay of Baiona to the south, is a haven for sailing and water enthusiasts. Its deep, calm waters cradle a wealth of marine life, nurtured by nutrient-rich currents from the north. While historically famed for fishing, today's challenges include balancing human and industrial impact on its coastal realm.

Vigo Ria is not just a geographic entity; it's a living tapestry with the city of Vigo and several municipalities adorning its banks. With a population of approximately 420,000, it teems with life, both natural and human. Yet, beneath its serene surface lies echoes of history—the Battle of Rande in 1702, a naval clash etched into its maritime narrative.

Very beautiful and spacious park. Donkeys in the pasture and low bridges.
