Discover the Natural Paradise of the Cies Islands

The Cies Islands, part of the Atlantic Islands of Galicia National Park, are a must-visit destination thanks to their exceptional natural beauty and ecological value. Once a refuge for pirates and now a sanctuary for seabirds, this archipelago offers an unspoiled landscape where the deep blue of the Atlantic Ocean meets the green of the pine forests in a truly unforgettable setting.

Visit Playa de Rodas and the Cies Lighthouse

During your free time on the islands, you can relax on the spectacular Playa de Rodas, famous for its soft white sand and crystal-clear turquoise waters. Often ranked among the best beaches in the world, Rodas Beach is the perfect place to swim, sunbathe or simply enjoy the peaceful natural surroundings of the Atlantic Islands National Park.

Beyond the beach, the Cíes Islands are a paradise for nature lovers and hikers. Several well-marked walking trails cross the archipelago, allowing visitors to discover untouched landscapes, pine forests, dunes and impressive coastal viewpoints.

One of the most popular routes leads to the Cíes Lighthouse, located at the highest point of the islands. This scenic hike rewards visitors with breathtaking panoramic views over the Atlantic Ocean, dramatic cliffs and nesting seabirds that inhabit the protected park. Along the way, you will experience some of the most spectacular natural scenery in Galicia.

Whether you prefer relaxing by the sea, taking photographs of the coastline or exploring the hiking paths of the islands, the Cíes offer a unique experience surrounded by nature and tranquility.
