Vilanova er en dejlig havneby ved havet med masser af barer og madmuligheder, men ikke meget andet end at kigge ud over havet.

The Road

BÅDEN. Alt, hvad du behøver at vide om båden til Pontecesures, er umuligt at skrive her. Tidsplanen varierer med tidevandet, antallet af passagerer og kaptajnens og hospitaleroens luner på alberguet (ham, der arrangerer det hele). Sagen kompliceres af, at den samme kaptajn styrer to både af forskellig størrelse og kapacitet, og der er en daglig beregning for at maksimere profitten. Desværre betyder det, at man ikke kan gøre meget for at planlægge det flere dage i forvejen, og at man mere eller mindre er nødt til at møde op på alberguet og arrangere tingene med hospitaleroen.

VEJEN. Alternativet til båden er en overvejende vejvandring ad en sti, der nogenlunde spejler kystlinjen, men ikke giver megen kontakt med den. Pilene mangler i visse områder, og overnatningsmulighederne langs denne strækning bør kun benyttes i sommermånederne og kun med reservation.

Wonderful time and the food was great. Run by a family for decades. Jorge and his sister Helena were delightful hosts and their Mother does the cooking! Best food of the trip! Very much worth the stay.

If you have a reservation on Barco Peregrino be sure to check with them the night before. They cancelled our 9:30 boat sent an email they were leaving an hour early. I didn’t see the email until 8:30 and the boat was gone! We ended up walking.

We arrived in Vila Nova at about 5pm and almost all the boats were fully booked. We got the last 3 spots. Prebook.

Nice, cozy room to stay in for a good price. Weak internet in the room. Has kitchen, bathroom and 5 minutes walk to the beach.

Wer Bedenken hat, einen Platz in der Herberge zu bekommen, kann im Hotel Dinajan, zwei Kilometer vor Vila Nova de Arousa (an der Brücke zur Insel) ein Doppelzimmer für 40 Euro bekommen.
Es sind 100 m zum Strand, ein Supermarkt ist in der Nähe und am Campingplatz kann man gut essen.

You want the Route Translatio from Villanova to Pontecesure. 25€.

Or there are other companies that take you on a rib style sporty boat.

I stayed here in Apr 2023, in a private room. Take care, the hot and cold taps were reversed!! Generally a good stay. There was a washing machine but only a small rack on which to hang laundry to dry. Main shopping area is a short walk, with several bars, cafe and restaurants close by. The hospitalera was great. Welcoming and helpful. Basic breakfast that I supplemented from the local supermarket, but several cafes were also open nearby in the morning.

The phone number listed everywhere for the public albergue appears to belong to someone else now. There was another number posted for “Fran” who I believe was the woman sitting at the check in desk. +34 633319459

I booked in advance online with Amare Turismo Náutico. Very efficient system. Cost €30 per person. They use two modern open speed boats which make for quite an exciting trip and get you to the destination ahead of the larger Pilgrim boat. Some stops on the way to point out things of interest. Commentary in Spanish and Spanglish. We did it in beautiful sunny weather. Might not be so much fun in the rain.
