If you wish to stay at a campsite on the Cíes Islands, the campsite must process the authorization. To cancel, contact the campsite first. Only after they confirm the cancellation should you reach out to the shipping company for your boat tickets. One authorization cannot be associated with another shipping company, so a cancellation requires processing a new authorization if you switch companies.
