It's important to note that we can only obtain your permit from the Xunta de Galicia within the 30 days leading up to your visit. Once it is approved, we will forward it to you.

Camper Authorization

If you choose to camp on the Cies Islands, the campsite will be responsible for processing the required authorization, and must also cancel it if you change your plans. Should the campsite not cancel the authorization, the shipping company will be unable to refund your boat fare.

This means that to cancel your trip to the Cies Islands, you must first notify the campsite. Once they confirm the cancellation of your authorization, you should reach out to the shipping company (within the refund time frame) to cancel your boat tickets.

Moreover, once an authorization is linked to a shipping provider, it cannot be transferred to another company. Therefore, if you decide to cancel your booking with the current provider, you must also cancel your authorization before submitting a new one.
