Cíes Islands Cíes Islands are the jewel of the Atlantic Islands National Park. Only
40 minutes away from the Cruise Quay, this natural paradise has
become one of the most important tourist appeals of the nortwest of
Spain. Idyllic white sand beaches with limpid waters are surrounded
by pine woodland and protected by steep cliffs with the world´s
largest colony of seagulls and many other different species of
birds nesting or resting on their migratory journeys.
This archipelago is made up of three islands, two of
them joined by a large stretch of sand: As Rodas
Beach, the best beach in the world, according
to The Guardian.
But Cies Islands not only welcome our
cruise visitors at the very entrance
to Vigo estuary, they are the port
natural guard that calms down
the Atlantic open sea waters
making Vigo shore a
safe sheltered port
of call even in
the roughest
storms.

As closely related to the sea as it is, Vigo is a city that has always been connected to its port from its very beginning.
Even today there are areas where visitors find it hard to make a distinction between the city and the docks. This connection can be seen not only in the traditional fishing spots in town, but also in the
large and recently renovated central port area that serves also as the heart of the city. Hundreds of thousands of tourists visit
this heart as they arrive by road, air and sea means, thus taking advantage of the two cruise-ships terminals that
welcome some 200,000 passengers on board of about one hundred vessels each year.
Vigo is the leading port in traffic in the area comprising Northern Spain and
Portugal, and it is not only an efficient and consolidated transit port for all
cruise-ships companies, but an inviting base port for them
after the many successful experiences on board
of Iberocruceros, Pullmantur and
MSC cruise-ships these
last years.
