There is something special about ferries. You find yourself in the middle of the sea, yet you are basically stuck within a close space with all fellow travellers. A great place for photography. As for the Cies Island, let’s that UK Guardian newspaper was not wrong when it listed it as one of the top 10 beaches in the world. Truly stunning, seems like you are in the Caribbean Sea.
