Boat Trip & Mussel Tasting on the Ría de Pontevedra

At your selected time, we'll meet at the port in Combarro, where the boat will be ready for our cruise on the Ría de Pontevedra. The boat features an underwater viewing area, allowing you to observe the marine life in the estuary.

As we sail, you'll see wooden platforms known as 'bateas', which are key to the local aquaculture. We will learn more about their purpose during the trip.

Midway through the cruise, we'll view Tambo Island, home to remains of Iron Age settlements and a famous lighthouse known for its spiral staircase.

We will also gain insights into the cultivation of mussels, oysters, and scallops, which are typical delicacies of Galicia.

To conclude the boat trip, we will enjoy a tasting of mussels and Galician wine before returning to Combarro port.
