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 famous 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, making stops at some of them. After admiring the coastal scenery, we'll enjoy a seafood platter.

The menu includes Galician empanada, brown crab, velvet crab, four crayfish, prawns, cockles and mussels. An alternative menu without seafood is available with grilled meat. This will be accompanied by Albariño wine, beer, and soft drinks, and a typical Santiago cake for dessert.

Following lunch, we'll witness the preparation of a traditional drink, queimada, and then taste it with crema de orujo, a cream liquor.

After this experience, we'll return to the pier of O Grove, concluding the activity after a total of 2 hours.
