Illa de Toralla, Residential island in Ria de Vigo, Spain
The 10.6-hectare island connects to mainland Vigo through a private bridge, featuring a 70-meter tower visible across the bay.
Archaeological evidence indicates the presence of an Iron Age settlement and Roman necropolis beneath the current residential structures on the island.
The island transformed from church property owned by the Diocese of Tui into a private residential development acquired by Toralla S.A. in 1965.
Access to the island remains limited to residents, though visitors can explore two sandy beaches and schedule guided tours to the Roman Villa.
The maintenance of the connecting bridge falls under the responsibility of property owners, as the island operates as a private development.
