THE TRIP

An experience to remember

The Parador is an ancient 12th century fortress called Monterreal Castle. Strategic point of maritime defense and scene of major historical events. Baiona was the first port in Europe to have knowledge of the discovery of the new world, with the arrival of La Pinta. In this getaway you will walk through the cobbled streets of the historic centre, you will witness the daily auctions and you will know the shellfish culture with our percebeira, you will enjoy the best gastronomy in the seafood tavern of our friend Pedro and you will taste a good albariño from a traditional winery.
