About Vigo

Vigo is Galicia's largest city, a fishing port on a deep estuary, with oyster sellers, a hilltop park and the sandy Cíes Islands offshore.

Vigo is the largest city in Galicia, built on hills that drop to the Ría de Vigo, a deep Atlantic inlet sheltered by islands. It is one of Europe's major fishing ports, and the old fishermen's quarter of O Berbés and the streets above still serve the sea. On the Rúa da Pescadería, women known as the ostreiras sell fresh oysters from stalls. Monte O Castro, a hilltop park with the remains of a fortress, looks over the city and the ría.
