Discover one of the most beautiful Galician enclaves in northern Spain with this Cies Islands Boat Tour. Enjoy a day in paradise with this ferry transfer from Portonovo!
Boat Tour Details
If you're in Portonovo and want to explore Cíes Islands, meet at Rúa Rafael Pico, where the ferry departs. You'll have the entire day to explore this impressive Galician enclave, historically regarded as a significant treasure of Spain. Activities include hiking and enjoying long beaches and clear waters, particularly Rodas Beach.
Return to Portonovo by ferry at 7 pm after your visit.
Want To Return Another Day?
If you wish to return on another day, indicate this during booking. Camping on the islands requires authorization from the Galician Government.
Guided Tours in Low Season
In low season (October 1 - May 14), the ticket includes a 1-hour tour with an official guide, as independent visits are prohibited. The guide will accompany you during the boat trip and show main routes at Cíes while explaining important aspects about the archipelago. This visit is not available during the 10 days of high season in Holy Week.
Authorization From the Xunta de Galicia
In high season (May 15 - September 30, and during Easter week), you must present your own authorization from the Xunta de Galicia. We will send it via email. For the rest of the year, the guide will bring the authorization.
Authorization for Campers
If you plan to stay at a campsite on the Cíes Islands, the campsite must process your authorization. To cancel your trip, contact the campsite first, and confirm the cancellation before reaching out to the shipping company to cancel your boat tickets.
Additionally, once authorization is linked to a shipping company, it cannot be transferred if you cancel your reservation.
