Islas Cíes
Islas Cíes Review
The Cíes Islands, 35 km (21 mi) west of Vigo, are a nature reserve and one of the last unspoiled refuges on the Spanish coast. From roughly March to October, depending on the weather, about eight boats a day leave Vigo's harbor, returning later in the day, for the round-trip fare of €16. The 45-minute ride brings you to white-sand beaches where birds abound, and the only land transportation is your own two feet: it takes about an hour to cross the main island.
