Explore the surroundings in Baiona
Baiona is a medieval fortified town dominated by the Parador. The best way to discover Baiona is to lose yourself in the historical quarter or take a bike and ride along the sea promenade. Legend has it that Baiona was the first port to hear the news of the discovery of America, and this event commemorated every first weekend in March with the Fiesta de la Arribada, when the town dresses and goes back to the Middle Ages. You can enjoy the sights of the medieval market and shows on the beaches presided over the by the museum-replica of the ship, La Pinta. Don’t miss this wonderful opportunity as you relax and enjoy the peace and quiet of the city walls or make the day last with a glass of wine at a terrace bar.
But that’s not all. Baiona also means nature. The views from the town show you one of the reasons why : the Isles of Cíes. This virgin natural paradise, included in the Parque Nacional de las Islas Atlánticas de Galicia, is home to the “most beautiful beach in the world”, the Playa de Rodas. There are other spectacular beaches close to the Parador, such as La Ribeira, La Concheira and La Barbeira, where you can do all kinds of water sports such as sailing. Baiona’s strategic location also allows you to visit other places such as Vigo, Tui, Pontevedra and even Portugal.
