Camping das Illas Cíes

Camping das Illas Cíes is a campground located on the Atlantic coast of the Illas Cíes islands near Vigo, situated within the Illas Atlánticas de Galicia National Park. The site features tent pitches and rental cabins spread across the terrain with views toward the ocean.

The campground was established in 1962 on one of the islands within what would become a protected nature reserve. It developed alongside the creation of the national park, which was designed to preserve this coastal landscape.

The site functions as a gathering place where visitors interact with the natural island environment and learn about Galician coastal ecosystems through daily observation. Local guides share knowledge about the region's wildlife and marine life as people explore the grounds.

The site is accessible by ferry from the mainland, with crossing frequency varying by season and weather conditions. Visitors should prepare for changeable coastal weather and bring waterproof and wind-resistant gear.

The grounds provide access to hidden coves and viewpoints easily reached on foot from the main area. These spots offer unexpected opportunities to watch seabirds and see the island landscape from different angles.
