Festa da Ostra de Arcade
6 and 7 April – Soutomaior
Oysters are generally tasty, but these are spectacular. Those bred at the mouth of the river Verdugo have a peculiar taste and a well-deserved reputation. Arcade has seized on its star product, they are pioneers in its commercialization and have achieved that their oysters are among the best quoted in the market.
During these two days, you can go to the Arcade pier to enjoy this mollusk at its best, have a dance at the verbena or admire the fireworks.
In addition to these festivities, some of the Easters of Galicia have already begun. If you’re interested in knowing all of them, watch out for the blog! This week we will publish an article with all of the Galicia Easters of tourist interest.
