Discover the picture-perfect Province of Pontevedra

The Province of Pontevedra stretches along the Portuguese border in south-west Galicia, and offers a taste of authentic Spain. Hustle and bustle is easy to come by at cosmopolitan Vigo and historic Pontevedra City, although perhaps the region's true appeal lies in its charming inland towns, packed-out calendar of festivals and more than 300 miles of picturesque coastline. Whether you're enjoying a little downtime with family and friends or setting the scene for a splash of romance, Province of Pontevedra vacation rentals come up trumps, with everything from smart city homes to coastal hangouts with room for 2.

Things to do

Downtime in the Province of Pontevedra

Vigo's historic district is perhaps not as well known as its counterparts in the province, despite boasting medieval streets, beautiful plazas and an array of museums and galleries. The city's modern marina stands in contrast nearby, offering a wide choice of cafes and bars for those wanting to sit for a while and watch the world go by. And, when a beach day is firmly on the agenda, you're sure to find your perfect spot, whether it's at the family-friendly Playa de Bouzas or on the bleached white sands of Playa de Samil.
