Baiona is one of the most traditional tourist destinations when visiting Vigo. This town with medieval origins was the first witness to the discovery of America, after the return of Columbus’ caravel “La Pinta”. It is worth visiting its replica, moored in the port, and attending the month of March to the celebration of the Arribada, a Festival of International Tourist Interest that commemorates the arrival of the caravel to Baiona; as well as stroll through the Monterreal Fortress, which dates back to the 11th century and currently houses the Parador Nacional de Baiona, and even go up to the boat-shaped viewpoint of the Virgen de la Roca, a 15-meter-high sculpture made by the Spanish urban planner Antonio Palacios.
