One of my places in Vigo y Rías Baixas

Combarro

Combarro

My pick
Dr. Abdulmajeed Al-MudarraMy tip
“30 minutes from Vigo; visit at high tide so the water is beneath the hórreos.”

A fishing village on Pontevedra Bay with the largest number of “hórreos” (raised stone granaries) at the water’s edge, among stone lanes and stone crosses.

What to see

stone granaries (“hórreos”) by the sea · stone crosses (“cruceiros”) · lanes cut into the rock · the waterfront on Pontevedra Bay · boat trips on the bay

How to get there

Monbus bus from Vigo to Pontevedra, then a bus to Combarro — by car ≈35 min

Easy to reach

Buses from Pontevedra, or a car with a parking spot at the entrance. Stone lanes run alongside the water, with some steps and uneven ground. Many restaurants. Crowded in summer.
