Ferry to the Cies Islands

The Cíes Islands are a natural paradise off the Galician coast that any visitor to the area simply can't miss! Enjoy a day in this natural park with a return ferry to the Cies Islands from Vigo. And don't worry about the permit, it's included!

Ferry Details

At your selected time, make your way to the port in Vigo to board the ferry to the Cíes Islands, a natural park in Spain. The trip takes 40 minutes.

Once disembarked, you'll be free to explore the island's hills and beaches or relax. This archipelago has hiking trails and natural attractions.

Ferry Timetable

Ferry departure times from the Cíes Islands vary by season and are subject to change. The schedule will be available when booking, and we'll confirm your specific return time.

Return on a Different Day

If you'd like to return on a different day, indicate so in the comments when making your reservation. Camping requires a permit from the Xunta de Galicia, and we only arrange authorizations for same-day returns.

Low-Season Guided Tours

In low season (between October 1 and May 14), the ticket includes a one-hour tour with an official guide. This guided tour does not take place during Easter (April 11-20, 2025).

The guide will accompany you on the boat trip, then show main routes and share details about the history and wildlife of the archipelago.

Authorization from the Xunta de Galicia

In high season (from May 15 to September 30 and Easter), you must bring your own authorization from the Xunta de Galicia. We will send it via email. Outside this period, the guide will provide it.

Authorization for Campers

If you stay at a campsite in the Cíes, the campsite must process the authorizations. Uncanceled authorizations prevent the shipping company from canceling tickets.

Once authorizations are associated with a shipping company, they cannot be switched. Cancellations must be processed accordingly.
