The Walk

From punta do Castro to Aguiño
Illa de Sálvora viewpoint

This walk takes us from the car park of the sports area at punta do Castro in Castiñeiras to the outer breakwater that closes the port of Aguiño, communicating several islets near those called As Centoleiras.

It is a route of just over 2 km that passes mostly along a wooden walkway parallel to Areeiros, O Castro and O Carreiro beaches, avoiding entering the nesting area of such an endangered species as the Kentish Plover.

At all times we have on our left the ría de Arousa in its immensity, being able to observe the A Illa de Arousa and the archipelagos of Ons and Sálvora, which are part of the Parque Nacional Marítimo-Terrestre das Illas Atlánticas de Galicia.
