A great way to enter the waters of the estuary of Arousa It is on board one of the catamarans or tour boats with mooring at the pier of O Grove and on the island of A Toxa.

Perhaps the most popular route be the boat ride for see the rafts up close and learn first-hand how mussels are farmed. This ride aboard a catamaran with underwater vision lasts between 60 and 75 minutes and includes a tasting of steamed mussels.

De O Grove the boats also leave for visit the island of Sálvora, belonging to the National Maritime-Terrestrial Park of the Atlantic Islands. This 4-hour excursion includes a guided tour of the island. Likewise, in the summer months it is common for special night excursions or starlight.

En O Grove it is also possible buy the tickets to travel to other islands of the National Park, both to Cíes as to Ons. This is due to the fact that several shipping companies from O Grove operate from Sanxenxo, Portonovo, Vigo or Cangas performing said service.

In addition, from O Grove it is also possible to make Jacobean Route or Traslatio if the trip is previously contracted with one of the catamarans. For groups only.

Other boat trips include lunch and dinner on board, ending the nightly seafood platters with a typical queimada.
