The Cíes Islands are recognized as a "Startlight Destination" due to their low light pollution, their unique location and good geographical conditions; they are an ideal destination for stargazing. We want to bring you closer to the sky of this natural jewel with a guided route that combines sea and land.
This experience begins by sailing at sunset through the beautiful Vigo estuary towards the archipelago of the Maritime-Terrestrial National Park of the Atlantic Islands of Galicia, a unique spectacle!
When night closes it is time to disembark. Depending on the considerations of the astronomical guide and the skipper, the island where to go down and the route to follow is chosen. There are two possible options for disembarkation:
On San Martiño beach (south island) where observation and interpretation is done from the boat.
On Rodas beach (main islands) you get off at the Rodas pier and take a walking route, for example, until you reach Alto del Príncipe.
To finish, we return to the port while enjoying hot tea while sailing through the starry night.
