Description

At the appointed time, we'll meet at Pozo da Aguada to start this private tour of Baiona, a city rich in history.

We'll begin on the seafront promenade, enjoying views of Mount Boi and the castle of Monterreal, which now functions as a Parador de Turismo Hotel.

Next, we'll admire the Virgen de la Roca, a monument standing 49 feet (15 metres) high, and learn about Pedro Madruga, a significant historical figure in Baiona.

We will discuss how the news of the Discovery of America reached Baiona via La Pinta, one of Christopher Columbus' ships. This coast also faced invasions by pirates and corsairs including Francis Drake.
