Cruising Galicia

A cruising guide to Galicia in north-west Spain, from Ribadeo to Bayona, where the rías give shelter from the Atlantic in harbours and remote anchorages.

The authors spent several seasons cruising the area and drew on local connections. Annotated town plans of over 90 destinations show facilities ashore and recommended restaurants, and side panels give notes on places to visit, local customs and features of interest.
