Vigo Estuary Boat Ride

Embark on this boat excursion for a delightful octopus tasting from the Ons Islands as you navigate through the picturesque Vigo estuary.

Activity Overview

On the scheduled date, you will gather at the port of Vigo, where we will warmly welcome you aboard this unique experience. If you have a passion for octopus, you're in for a treat today as it takes center stage. Let’s set our course!

The vessel will smoothly navigate into the Vigo estuary, where you will pass by stunning beaches, impressive mountains, and a network of floating mussel-farming platforms. Throughout this journey, witness how the convergence of Atlantic tides and river flows fosters a rich marine habitat, essential for the area’s fishing industry.

While we sail, enjoy the on-board entertainment, featuring activities rooted in Galician folklore. You’ll get the chance to learn traditional dances and participate in the vibrant cultural celebrations historically linked to the local fishing communities.

Midway through the voyage, the highlight of the day awaits: a tasting of Ons octopus, carefully prepared using age-old methods, accompanied by Galician wine, water, or soft drinks. An interesting fact—octopus destined for dining in Galicia is traditionally frozen beforehand to enhance its texture after cooking. A truly unique experience!

After spending 1.5 hours on the water, we will return to our original meeting point to bid farewell. Until next time!
