De beste bezienswaardigheden in Ribadeo

Ribadeo Essentials

Ribadeo’s coastline is defined by the dramatic rock arches of As Catedrais Beach and the Illa Pancha lighthouse guarding the estuary. The town’s history is preserved in the 18th-century Forte de San Damián and the neoclassical Pazo de Ibáñez, which now serves as the City Hall. Visitors can explore the historic center’s stone-arcaded streets, known as Soportais, and the Cargadeiro do Ferro, a former industrial iron-loading site repurposed as a scenic viewpoint over the Eo estuary.
