The Rias of Galicia & the North West corner of Spain!


Hello again! After a  windy and demanding night in Luarca  we arrived in Viviero after 8 hours sailing.


Galicia is a wonderful cruising ground comprising about 180nm of granite coastline deeply indented with steep sided "Rias", each just a day sail from the next.


Ria de Viviero
A quiet, awesome ria with an easy entrance, exposed to the north.


Good nearby shopping and an attractive old town with narrow streets hidden behind the rather grotty (mostly destroyed) city walls. 


Superb Tapas Bars and excellent Fish everywhere .....


Stay salty my friends!
