When the sun shines and the sea glows in different colors, it's a real dream.

O Carreirón is neither a Natural Park nor a National Park. It is included within the Ons O Grove Special Conservation Area (ZEC).

St. Martin's Church dates back to the 14th century, but was built in the Romanesque style, based on the famous cathedral in Santiago de Compostela.⛪️ They also wanted to build a second church tower on top of it. The clergy in Santiago forbade them from doing so. Only the cathedral in Santiago should have this as a unique selling point. And they were told: if they dared to do it, something terrible would happen. When someone wanted to put a second tower made of paper on top of it, it fell down and died. A small red cross was painted on the spot where the person died. Since then, St. Martin's Church has also been called the "cursed" church because it was cursed.

El promenade of the city is a possible visit with tasty ice cream options. Porto do Xufre is also worth a visit as it is the island's main fishing port. It is right next to the fish market and is a good starting point for a walk to the lighthouse. During the walk you get to know the city with its traditional houses. Today in the port of otherwise safely sleepy Xufre we had a lot of color and movement on the day of the procession of the Blessed Virgin Carmen, the Catholic protector of all sailors. Many boats and ships are colorfully decorated and also go out to sea with the 3 figures of saints.

You can visit the Punta Cabalo lighthouse, but if possible not eat there (small and expensive). Watching the sunset from this point is a beauty unless there's a hell of a wind blowing. You can walk around the lighthouse. From the lighthouse begins (or ends) a very easy path that reaches the area where the city is located. The path runs along cliffs parallel to the coast and offers stunning views of the sea.

It was a beatiful walk, fantastic scenery and views. But dogs are not allowed in this part of the island and I risked an expensive ticket, sharing this great time with my Dakota.

On the island there are some of the most beautiful beaches with crystalline waters in Galicia. The many white sand beaches located in the sheltered coves of the island can be enjoyed after a long day of walking. The island is home to many protected birds that spend part of the year in this part of the national park.

The Punta Cabalo Lighthouse was built in 1852 on a rocky spur in the northwest area of A Illa de Arousa. The location of the lighthouse is a great place to contemplate those long sunsets over the Ría de Arousa, with views of the O Barbanza region
