Boat Trip from Cudillero to Cape Vidío

You leave the port by motorboat and follow the coast to the west: the Concha de Artedo, the cliffs and channels of El Rebeón, San Pedro de la Ribera, the old port of Oviñana and, beneath Cape Vidío, the cave of La Iglesiona, 67 metres high. If you want to see Silencio beach from the water, choose the long route, of almost two hours.

The routes and what you see

Cudillero Aventura offers two short outings along the Cudillero coast. The Cape Vidío cliffs route lasts about 1 hour 20 minutes and passes the Concha de Artedo, the Rebeón cliffs, Oleiros beach, Salamir and Lamuño, Punta de Malperro, the Traspeña channel, San Pedro de la Ribera beach, the port of La Portiella at Oviñana, the 87-metre cliff of Cape Vidío, the entrance to La Iglesiona and the Furnas del Vidío.

The cliffs and Silencio beach route lasts about 1 hour 50 minutes. It adds Las Menores, the hidden face of Silencio, Silencio beach itself and Gueirúa. For a long day, the company also has a route of about four hours to Luarca and Puerto de Vega, with a stop of about 45 minutes at Puerto de Vega, booked by phone.

Before boarding

Boarding is at Cudillero's West Port, where you must present yourself at the departure point. The company insists that it is strictly punctual. The departure depends on weather conditions and the state of the sea: with a swell it may be cancelled. The website does not detail the type of boat, minimum ages or cancellation policy; if you are travelling with babies, with a dog or with any mobility concern, ask when you book.

If you get seasick easily, the short route is the prudent option. Bring a jacket and sun protection.

What to combine

The port is next to the tourist office. After the boat, go up by land to Cape Vidío and its lighthouse to see the cliff from above, or take a swim at the Concha de Artedo.
