Hiring a boat in O Grove
O Grove is the peninsula between the Rías of Arousa and Pontevedra, with the island of La Toxa and its marina, and its rental fleet is 3 companies: a sailing school that rents and two combining rental with trips round the ría; the top-rated has more than 200 reviews. O Grove is above all the harbour of the scheduled catamarans to the mussel rafts, with tasting on board, which have far more demand than rental. For bareboat motorboats and sailing boats, Sanxenxo, 11 km away, has 14 companies.
The season runs from June to September. The Ría de Arousa is the largest and most sheltered in Galicia, with shallow bottoms and rafts to dodge; outside, towards Sálvora and Ons, swell.
