If there are six of you or fewer and you want to see the Ría de Corcubión from the water without sharing a boat, Atlantis Aventura rents a motorboat with a skipper that leaves from Fisterra port or Corcubión. The short outing, of about two hours, costs from €390 for the whole boat, not per person; the long ones run to eight hours and the price is given when booking.
What route you take
There is no fixed route: the skipper puts it together with you according to that day's sea and the hours you have. The options the company suggests are Cape Fisterra seen from below, with sunset from the water if you leave late; the Ría de Corcubión, with the Cardenal castle at the entrance to the port; the Lobeiras islands, off the coast; and coves that are harder to reach from land, such as Sardiñeiro, Gures, Estorde or Talón beach. On a long outing you can cross towards Monte Pindo and the mouth of the Xallas, where the fervenza do Ézaro falls. The company warns that sometimes birds, shoals of fish or dolphins appear, but does not promise it.
The boat and what you can add
It is a Quicksilver Activ 705 motorboat with a canopy, toilet, cool box, shower, bathing ladder and table, for six passengers and the skipper. Everyone wears a life jacket. On request, and at an extra price, wetsuits, snorkel masks and fins, a paddle board or food prepared by local cooks can come on board. To anchor in a cove and swim, ask when booking: it depends on the route and the sea.
How to book
Prior booking is compulsory, through the Atlantis Aventura website, by email or by WhatsApp on 637 507 702. The departure depends on the weather and the sea state, which changes quickly on this coast: if you can't go out, another day is found. The company does not publish a seasonal calendar for the boat, so confirm the date with them.
On price, the fuller the boat the better value: with six people, the short outing comes to €65 each. For a family who only wants to see the waterfall from the water, the kayak to the fervenza is cheaper. Afterwards, in Fisterra port you have the San Carlos castle and, for dinner with views of the ría, O Fragón.
Tips
- Go out late If you want the sunset at the cape from the water, book the outing so that it ends after sunset.
- Bring a jacket On the boat the wind blows harder than in the port, in summer too.
- Ask about seasickness Outside the ría, the swell is noticeable; if you get seasick, ask for a route inside.
