Hotels in Atlantic Islands of Galicia National Park, Spain
The Atlantic Islands of Galicia National Park, a cluster of rugged islets off Spain's northwest coast, is famous for its seabird colonies and pristine beaches like Praia das Rodas on Cíes Island. The climate is mild year-round, with dry summers (averaging 68°F / 20°C) perfect for kayaking through the clear Atlantic waters or hiking to Monte Faro lookout, while wet winters (around 50°F / 10°C) bring fewer tourists and ideal conditions for spotting gannets and cormorants during stormy boat tours. Try the autumn months for cooler hiking without summer crowds, or spring for wildflowers and cheaper ferry fares to Ons Island's lighthouse.
