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 Cíes Islands from Vigo. And don't worry about the permit, it's included!
Ferry to the Cíes Islands
At your selected time, make your way to the port in Vigo to board the ferry to the Cíes Islands. The trip takes 40 minutes. Upon disembarking, you can explore the island's hills and beaches or relax in the sun.
Cies Islands to Vigo Timetable
Ferry departure times from the Cíes Islands vary by season and may change. You'll find the schedule when making your booking, and we'll confirm your specific return time as close to your original choice as possible.
Return on a Different Day
If you'd like to return on a different day, please indicate so in the comments section when making your reservation. To camp on the islands, you must obtain the relevant permit from the Xunta de Galicia, as 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, as visiting the islands independently is prohibited. The guide will accompany you during the boat trip and provide insights about the history and nature of the islands. This guided tour will not take place during Easter.
Authorization from the Xunta de Galicia
In high season (from May 15th to September 30th and Easter), you must bring your own authorization from the Xunta de Galicia to access the Cíes Islands. We will send it to you by email as soon as possible. During the rest of the year, the guide will bring it on the day of the tour.
Authorization for campers
If you choose to stay at a campsite in the Cíes, the campsite must process and cancel the authorizations. If not canceled, the shipping company cannot cancel the boat tickets. If the campsite confirms the cancellation, you must contact the shipping company within the established refund period to cancel your boat tickets.
