Rías Baixas - Arousa Island, Combarro and Mussel Boat

We visit this important town so closely related to the Camino de Santiago (Portuguese Way) and to the history of the arrival of the Apostle Santiago in Galicia. Here we will visit the church of Santiago with the guide, where the "pedrón" is located, and we will have time to walk through the Alameda and have a coffee.

We visited this wonderful example of popular architecture. We will walk through its granite alleys between granaries and stone crosses. There is an option to try mussels from Combarro

Optional - Mussel Boat In the Marina of Combarro we take the boat in which we will cross the Pontevedra estuary; seeing the mussel farms, the towns of Combarro and Marín from the sea and the island of Tambo. On board we will have a tasting of mussels and local wine.

The island of A Toxa was the first holiday resort in Europe back in the late nineteenth century, also because of the soaps that were made on the island. On the island we will see the historic "Gran Hotel LaToja", the old soap factory and the curious "Capilla de las Conchas" (completely covered with scallop shells.

Once in Cambados we see the main square of the town with its impressive Pazo (Fefiñáns). In this town they will have free time to taste local products in one of the many restaurants.

We reach the island by crossing one of the longest bridges over the sea in Europe. Once there you can choose between taking a walk through the natural park with our guide, having a drink sitting by the sea or taking a dip in one of the fantastic beaches on the island!
