Sheltered by the Cíes Islands National Park, UNESCO World Heritage candidate, Vigo is a Spanish Atlantic port of reference for cruise lines. Its destination offer covers all interests, from families to independents, from the largest, conventional or premium, cruises, to the smallest luxury, boutique, adventure or expedition ones; and it is a recurring port of call on Atlantic itineraries between central and northern Europe heading to or coming from the Mediterranean and the Canary Islands; as well as on seasonal cruises with the Baltic Sea and the Caribbean. In the heart of the city, next to the Old Town and just five minutes walking from the main shopping streets, the port area dedicated to welcome cruise guests extends through a pedestrian space with promenades and gardens, with Vigo’s two cruise piers, one at each end. Located in the center of the city and exceptionally well connected, it provides a 1,000 mberthing line and all the necessary services for transit and homeport calls, with the highest ISPS and quality standards. A wide historical and cultural offer is available in the Port of Vigo, including the city of Santiago de Compostela, a World Heritage Site, the nearby Portuguese border, medieval towns, castles and manors, Celtic settlements, Romanesque churches or modernist and eclectic architecture. The nature and landscape are also a highlight, mainly its wonderful estuary, the Ria de Vigo, with beautiful beaches, as well as the rich local cuisine, based on fish and seafood, and its world-renowned PDO Rías Baixas Albariño white wines.
