A Pobra do Caramiñal’s harbour

The harbour in A Pobra do Caramiñal is a tourist destination. The port is open to the public; fishing boats on display range from dinghy-sized

quay

A footpath runs the length of the harbor and parallel to the beach, leading to the second section of the port which contains

Blue Flag of the EU until their withdrawal in 2015 because of the lack of lifeguards.[2]
