Gastronomy
Its fishing origin has left a historic neighborhood with a strong maritime flavor, which contrasts with the modern facilities of its marinas. This city is a great base for visiting the towns and villages along the Vigo estuary and the Cíes Islands that are part of the Atlantic Islands National Park. Galician coast cuisine is based on fish and shellfish and is an added incentive to visit this region.
Weather
Vigo's climate is generally classified as oceanic, but summers tend to be warmer and drier and winters milder than most similarly classified areas. In fact, Vigo's climate is more similar to the oceanic climate variant commonly seen in the Pacific Northwest region of North America, although with noticeably warmer winters. Substantial rainfall throughout the year prevents it from being classified as a Mediterranean climate, although there is a drought trend in summer. The average annual temperature in Vigo is 15 ° C (59 ° F).
Compared to many other cities in Galicia, Vigo experiences warmer summer temperatures and milder winters. This is due to its protected location, surrounded by inland mountains and the Illas Cíes in the bay towards the sea.
