Baiona, a stunning seaside town in Galicia, is known for its rich history, gorgeous coastline, and relaxed atmosphere. It was the first place in Europe to receive news of Columbus’s discovery of the New World, and today, visitors can explore the replica of La Pinta, one of Columbus’s ships. Baiona’s charming old town, with its stone-paved streets and medieval architecture, is a delight to explore. The town’s beaches offer calm waters, and the nearby Cíes Islands, a protected nature reserve, make for an incredible day trip. Whether you’re a history buff, a nature lover, or a seafood enthusiast, Baiona offers something special.
