One of my favorite places near Vigo is this corner located between the town halls of Nigràn, Gondomar and Baiona.
The estuary where the Miñor, Groba and Belesar rivers flow, called A Foz, is a spectacular natural area, included in the Natura 2000 Network of the European Union for its environmental and landscape quality and for being the nesting area for a large number of birds. .

Nice view-point at a rough coast. Great, broad roads, you won't really notice the traffic.

Coastal Battery J4 Cabo Silleiro

Highlight • Historical Site

For more than 6 decades this facility has served in the surveillance and protection of the Ría de Vigo and the Bay of Baiona. It has been abandoned and is now pretty much in ruins but it is still an interesting visit.

This 13th-century bridge crosses the Miñor River and connects the municipalities of Nigrán and Bayona.

Pagan rites were performed on this bridge; when women had problems getting pregnant, they had to go to this point after twelve at night to convince the first man who passed by to give them a "prenatal baptism". In this way, the man poured water on the woman's womb and became the godfather of the future baby. Once the ritual and the party were over, they threw the food and drink left over from the celebration into the river to give thanks for the magical powers of the water.
