Or embark on an afternoon on the water to catch sight of the whales and dolphins that gather in the sea.

The sun will shine upon you as you enter the harbor of Vigo, the largest city in Spain’s autonomous Galicia region.

Then, learn up about the region at one of Vigo’s excellent museums: Museo do Mar Galicia features exhibits on the local oceanography and ecosystems, while the Vigo Museum of Contemporary Art hosts a changing lineup of participatory workshops and installations by innovative artists working today. Later, stretch your legs on the GR-53, a 25-mile path along the coastline and low mountain peaks around the city, or relax by the blue waters of Cies Beach.
