Ría de Arousa Seafood & Queimada Cruise

Go on a pleasant catamaran ride on the Arousa Estuary accompanied by seafood and queimada in this activity from O Grove. You'll even visit the mussel farms and taste the famous Albariño wine!

Description

We'll meet at the port of O Grove at the designated time and board the catamaran for our cruise along the Arousa Estuary, known as the Ría de Arousa.

Throughout the crossing, we'll sail by notable places like the A Illa de Arousa and Cambados, the capital of Albariño wine, which was awarded the title of European Wine City in 2017.

We'll also pass by the mussel, oyster and scallop farms, with stops at some of them. After enjoying the beautiful coastal scenery, we'll have a seafood platter that includes Galician empanada, brown crab, velvet crab, four crayfish, prawns, cockles, and mussels. Alternatively, a non-seafood menu with grilled meat is available. Beverage options include Albariño wine, beer, and soft drinks, with dessert being a typical Santiago cake.

After lunch, we'll see the preparation of queimada, a traditional drink, and taste it alongside crema de orujo, a cream liqueur.

We will return to the pier of O Grove, concluding the activity after a total of 2 hours.
