Galicia Coast & Canyons Grand Loop
Starting and ending in Santiago de Compostela, loop through the Costa da Morte, Rías Baixas, Sil Canyon, and the northern coast.
See all four faces of Galicia in one trip: the capes of the Costa da Morte, the fishing villages and Cíes Islands of the Rías Baixas, the canyons and monasteries of the Ribeira Sacra, and the Roman walls of Lugo alongside the Cathedrals Beach. This is a self-drive loop staying about two nights at each stop, with longer drives in the second half. Ideal for second-time visitors to Spain or those making a dedicated trip to Galicia.
From mid-May to mid-September, you must obtain authorization before visiting the Cíes Islands, and ferries operate seasonally.
