How to get to Cíes
Do you want to know how get to the Cíes Islands? The only way to access the Cíes is by sea. In summer and Easter, there are several shipping companies based in the port of Vigo that carry out daily boat tours to the Cíes. These ferries will take you straight to the islands of Monte Agudo and O Faro.
The Cíes have a limit of 2,200 visitors a day, so it’s advisable to book a place on the boat in advance.
