Rías Gallegas

The long sea arms that reach deep into the earth, known as the Galician estuaries, are said to bear the imprint of God's fingers who, after creating the world, rested his hand here. And perhaps that is true since the estuaries are a rare phenomena and a gift from heaven along the complicated 1,498 km of coastline that runs from Vigo to Ribadeo.

Each Galician estuary is a haven that holds a world of natural richness, scenes with a tale to tell. From east to west, from north to south, from the Ras Altas to the Ras Baixas, passing through those of the Costa rtabra and those of A Costa da Morte.

There are cliffs and beaches with calm waters, vineyards, pine forests, fishing villages, marinas, "pazos" with gardens by the water, and what many consider to be the best estuary in the world. There is also exquisite seafood cuisine.
