In the city's old town there are plenty of traditional eateries lined up alongside artist studios, boutique shops, and cafes, whilst the lively port area is home to incredible views. Home to the largest fishing fleet in Europe, Vigo is an important cog in the commerce wheel of Spain, but there are also lots of hiking routes, numerous nooks and crannies tucked away in the modern part of the city, and the Praza de Compostela, a lush green space that languishes just outside the city centre. Our apartments in Vigo place you right in the heart of the city, where you'll be surrounded by rustic scenery and charming views.

Though it's predominantly known as a fishing port, Vigo in fact harbours a lot of culture throughout the winding streets of its old town and the meandering laneways of the modern part of the city. If you're on the hunt for some culture, you won't be left disappointed thanks to the collection of museums and historic monuments.
The Museo Quinones de Leon celebrates the historic art and archaeology of the region. Set inside an incredible 17th century palace in the heart of the Parque de Castrelos, it showcases documents, artefacts, and age-old artworks that have played a major part in Vigo's past.
For a taste of Vigo's beautiful architecture, head to the Igrexa de Santa Maria, an impressive church that takes pride of place in the centre of the old town. It was built back in 1816 after its predecessor, a display of Romanesque design, was burnt down by Sir Francis Drake.
If you're looking to learn more about Vigo's role as an important fishing port, head to the Museo do Mar which sits of the coast of the city. Here you can explore the timeline of the city's naval and seafaring history, as well as check out the small aquarium and other quirky objects.
