Combarro is the most photographed village in the Rías Baixas, and once you see it you understand why. A line of granite hórreos — the distinctive raised granaries of Galicia — stands directly above the water, with a tangle of narrow lanes, low stone cottages, and a small fishing port behind them. The village is tiny and easily covered on foot in an hour.
Come early or late to avoid the daytime tour buses. Sunset, when the hórreos silhouette against the ria, is the iconic moment. A handful of waterside seafood restaurants make a meal here an easy decision.
