Hiring a boat in Moaña
Moaña is on the northern shore of the Ría de Vigo, opposite the city, with the marina, Meira and Domaio towards the San Simón inlet and the Rande bridge, and its rental offer is a Meira marina company combining boat storage and rental, with 20 Google reviews. The big fleet is 15 minutes away on the ferry: Vigo, with 19 companies, and Cangas, 8 km away, with 2 and the short run to the Cíes. From Moaña you sail the head of the ría, to San Simón and the mussel rafts, in sheltered water, or to the Cíes, about 10 miles, with a licence or skipper.
The season runs from June to September. The ría is sheltered and can be sailed in almost any wind; the Rande bridge has clearance for any hire boat.
