General presentation
Pontevedra et péninsule du Morrazo
Old pedestrian town, rías, beaches, maritime villages and viewpoints between Pontevedra, Cangas and Bueu.
To understand what Pontevedra and the Morrazo peninsula are, you have to look at Pontevedra, Combarro and Cangas. These places give you a view of a territory marked by urban life, the coastline, heritage and natural spaces and allow you to move from emblematic sites to more intimate stages.
See all
For a stay of 2 to 5 days, it is better to balance visits and travel times. Also to be anticipated: weather-dependent beaches and influx to the islands in summer. The trip can be organised without a car if the drop point and local connections are selected in advance. Accessibility varies from site to site and deserves to be checked step by step.

Places worth visiting
A selection to start dreaming and organizing the stay — not an exhaustive list of everything there is to see.
Place
Pontevedra
Pontevedra It is read from its bridges and water routes, where the movement of the city is read in depth. A walk on the banks then towards the ancient heart creates a clear understanding of the axes. The clear mornings give structured perspectives.
Place
Combarro
Combarro is known for its hórreos aligned to the edge of the river, placed almost above the water at high tide. Granite alleys, stone crosses and fishermen's houses form a very tight, more pleasant set when groups disperse at the beginning or end of the day.
Place
Cangas
Cangas enjoy the combination of lanes, river access and sea views. Walking without haste allows you to see how the village breathes between passage areas and deeper areas. The early afternoon light gives matter to the facades.
Place
Bueu
In Bueu, local dynamics are revealed in microspaces, between nearby facades, squares and shore. The place is more legible by following a winding path rather than in a straight line. The cooler hours give a clear and stable experience.
