The Experience
Before You Go
Hydrate for the wind
Carry at least 1–2 liters; coastal wind can increase perceived exertion and dehydrate you faster than you expect.
Ride in layers
Bring a light windproof layer to add or remove as sea breezes shift—mornings can be cool, afternoons warm.
Choose morning or late afternoon
Run the tour early or late to avoid the strongest sun and enjoy crisper light for photos and birdwatching.
Respect river mouths and dunes
Stay on designated paths near the Tirso estuary—these are sensitive habitats and often nesting sites.
