Galicia is situated on the north-west coast of Green Spain, just above Portugal, making it a geographically, scenically and culturally different to many of Spain’s better known southern provinces. It has a warm but temperate climate and a lush landscape with mountain ranges, rivers and 1500km of coastline that indented by a series of rías (coastal inlets), which carve fjord-like into the land to create sandy beaches, while their shallow waters provide a harvest of shellfish.

The region’s largest centres of population are the university city of Santiago, La Coruña, which is noted for its Tower of Hercules lighthouse, and Vigo. Further south, the fishing port of Cambados is seen as the capital of Albariño, Galicia’s delicate and fragrant white wine.
Provinces: La Coruña, Pontevedra, Lugo, and Orense.

“Mientras Vigo trabaja, Pontevedra duerme, Santiago reza y La Coruña se divierte.”

Santiago de Compostela

“Santiago de Compostela is a leading Catholic pilgrimage route since the 9th century.”

Plazada Lena Pontevedra
