⚓ Where the City Faces the Sea – Vigo, Galicia, Spain

#postandearn 📍 Vigo, Province of Pontevedra, Galicia, Northwestern Spain — on the southern shore of the Ría de Vigo, facing the Cíes Islands and Atlantic Ocean Vigo is a city shaped by the sea — alive with ships, seafood, salt air, and stories. Built on hills that rise from the Ría de Vigo, it’s both bustling and rooted, with working ports and quiet old streets that carry the rhythm of Galicia’s coastal soul. You’ll find a rich contrast here: fishermen’s taverns near glass-fronted galleries, busy markets beside calm viewpoints, and the deep blue of the ocean never far away. From Casco Vello (the old town) to Monte do Castro with its sweeping views and ancient ruins, Vigo offers both energy and stillness in equal measure. 🧭 Tips for Visitors: • Visit the Mercado da Pedra for oysters and local life • Take a ferry to the Cíes Islands — pure Atlantic paradise • Great for sea lovers, seafood enthusiasts, and cultural wanderers • Walk along Samil Beach at sunset — golden light, wide skies • Try pulpo á feira, empanada galega, and local Albariño wine #VigoGalicia #RíaDeVigo #SeasideCity #GalicianSoul #AtlanticSpain #CascoVelloVigo #CíesIslands #SlowTravelGalicia#familytrip #localguides #historicallandmarks
