Boat to Ons Island
Boat between Pontevedra & Ons Island
Your boat to Ons Island will depart at the indicated time from the port of Pontevedra. After a journey of approximately one hour, you'll arrive at Ons, one of the oases that make up the Atlantic Islands of Galicia National Park. Once you disembark at the pier, you can enjoy this natural paradise at your leisure.
One of the main attractions of the island of Ons is its paradisiacal Melide Beach. Different trails will also allow you to walk to the lighthouse, located in the island's interior. Its landscapes will captivate you from the moment you arrive!
Ons Island Visitors Permit
Ons Island is a protected area with a daily quota of visitors, and to be able to visit it's necessary to obtain authorization from the Xunta de Galicia.
Please take into account that in high season (from May 15th to September 15th and Easter) you'll have to bring your own authorization from the Xunta de Galicia to access Ons. We'll send it to you by email as soon as possible. For the rest of the year, we won't send it to you, as the guide will bring it on the day of the tour.
If for any reason any of you cannot attend the activity, you must give at least 15 days' notice and indicate the name and surname of the person who will be absent so that the Xunta de Galicia can remove them from the list.
