GALICIA Information - Natural Parks: COSTA DA MARIÑA OCCIDENTAL

LOCATION: On the Western Coast of Lugo, O Viceda, Viveiro, Xove and Cervo districts.

SURFACE AREA: 491 ha.

ACCESS: The C-642 joins the main towns. Local turn-affs along the coast.

SERVICES: Accommodation and food in all the towns. The Bay of Biscay's "Marina", or coastline, is the white fringe on green fields that offer no resistance to the wind, although in ancient testaments they border to the north with Great Britain, the sea in between. Forever sea and forever north to define a coastline with a wealth of rock fish, islands of seagulls and rough grass. This western section has rocky points marked with lighthouses such as Roncadoira Point and islets wholly encircles by cliffs, from Illa Coelleira (O Vicedo) to ilia do Saron (Xove) or Os Farallons de San Cibrao (Cervo). There are places around the inlets and coves with cofdos and solitary beaches, some with a well-earned summer reputation such as Covas or Area in the Viveiro ria, or Arealonga y Xilloi on the O Barqueiro ria. With the recent inclusion of this section, almost the entire coastline of northern Galicia, from Ferrol to Ribadeo is included in the Natura network.

FLORA: Considerable plant variety associated with the contrasting landscapes of the Lugo coast. From the most frequent beach varieties such as sea spurge (Euphorbia paralias) or beach morning glory (Calystegia soldanella) to cliff flora such as Armeria pugibera. There is also plenty of red, brown and green seaweed.

FAUNA: Major nesting bird colonies on the islands and islets. Terns (Sterna spp.) and albatross (Sula bassana) can be observed.
