Sunsets in Vigo

Where can you see Vigo’s best sunsets? All sunsets in Vigo are spectacular: you'll be speechless when you see how the sun slowly sinks into the estuary, turning it a fiery red, orange and purple, with the Cíes Islands on the horizon... Choose one of these superb viewpoints over the estuary and enjoy a stunning sunset in Vigo:

• O Castro Mountain: climb up to the highest point in the city centre. You can watch the sunset over the estuary from the monument to the Rande galleons, the Mirador (viewpoint) or the fortress.

• Vigo Beaches: Samil Beach, O Vao, A Fontaíña... choose your beach: they all offer magical sunset moments.

• Museum of the Sea: the surrounding area of this museum in Alcabre has nice stone benches where you can wait for the sunset while the sea breeze cools the air.

• Bouzas Seafront Promenade: nothing stands between you and the sunset over the Cíes Islands on the Bouzas seafront promenade, next to O Adro Beach. Afterwards, you can go for some tapas in the fishermen’s bars in the area.

Nature trails and forest parks: If you like nature, explore our mountains and discover fabulous views of the estuary. The Senda del Agua (water trail) will surprise you.
