This small town is a beautiful summer retreat for Galicians and tourists alike looking for lush nature and endless possibilities for all tastes.

Your holiday in Sanxenxo is sure to be a memorable one, in the tourist capital of the Rías Baixas, which has always been the destination of choice for those who want to enjoy a unique setting of beautiful beaches and pristine natural landscapes, while still enjoying the amenities and entertainment of summer holiday destinations.

Walk along Paseo de Silgar, a seafront promenade that follows the urban beach of the same name. Meet La Madama, a famous bronze statue on the beach built on a rock that represents the beauty of the sea. If you continue along the promenade, you’ll find the Juan Carlos I Marina, famous across Spain as a place to practise nautical activities and home to events such as the Volvo Ocean Race. If you’re looking for the famous long unspoilt beaches this beautiful land is known for, head to La Lanzada in the same municipality, and let the salty Atlantic ocean bathe your skin.

With our cheap trips to Sanxenxo, you’ll get to enjoy the great architectural wealth of the town, embodied in the fisherman’s style church of San Ginés, with the Virgen del Carmen crowned with a halo in the form of a scallop on the façade. In the urban centre, you’ll find the palace of the Duques de Patiño, an example of the summer manors that are typical of Galicia.

The beautiful Paseo da Praia de Silgar promenade connects Sanxenxo with Baltar beach in Portonovo, passing by the viewpoint of Punta Vicaño, where you can admire a panoramic view of Sanxenxo and its beach.

Thanks to our package deals to Sanxenxo, the foodies among you will enjoy the delicacies of the Ría de Arousa estuary, where the highest quality fish and seafood are the stars of the show at most restaurants, all washed down with the finest Albariño wines. If you’re travelling to this small town in April, you can enjoy the Fiesta de la Raya, the Feast of the Ray, where you can savour this fish in a variety of recipes.

Whether as a couple or with your family, our offers for trips to Sanxenxo will let you discover the pleasures of the Rías Baixas in this beautiful seaside town.
