We took our time going the 29.3 kms from Baiona to Vigo over two days, stopping for experiences along the Senda Litoral. Visited the replica of the Pinta in Baiona harbor, watched people learning how to parakite, and browsed at some Férias (markets) along the way. The beaches in the section around Nigrán are terribly crowded, specially on a Sunday afternoon in August! Monday morning we passed some people sleeping on a little beach near Portiño, wound through little lanes and walked quite a bit on a bicycle path near a road, then as we neared Vigo walked through a park along the harbor and then the Vigo river. And visiting the Parroquia de Maria Auxiliadora in Vigo today, wondering why there is a statue of a man in a modern suit on the raredos behind the altar?

Ken discovering America on board a replica of Columbus’ ship Pinta in Baiona harbor.
Also In Baiona harbor, too small for Columbus so he left them behind.
Portiño beach on a beautiful morning!
Medieval (?) cross on the shore on the way to Vigo.
And we continued feasting our eyes…
And our stomachs! These are zamburiñas (variegated scallops), a delicious baked specialty of the region.
And this statue of a saint in a suit was on the altar piece at Maria Auxiladora church in Vigo. Wish we had found someone at the church to ask about it.

Thanks for your blog. I found this a huge day’s walk recently and prefer to walk only up to 20kms. Where did you stop overnight between Baiona and Vigo? Would you recommend it?

Hi Jo. We stayed in Nigrán, which is between Baiona and Vigo, at the El Retiro Hotel. The hotel rooms are basic, but the restaurant is popular with locals and only a few blocks from the Camino. Nigrán is a big beach resort so there are plenty of other properties.
