Palmeira Anchorage
✨ Hidden gem
Drop the hook in sheltered waters just off the small fishing village of Palmeira, a quiet corner of the Ría de Arousa on Galicia's Atlantic coast. The setting is genuinely working-fishing-village rather than touristy, with the comings and goings of local boats giving it real character. From here you can easily get ashore to explore Palmeira itself or make the short trip into the larger town of Ribeira for supplies and seafood restaurants.
