Ferrol

About Ferrol

No visit to Ferrol is complete without indulging in Galicia’s legendary seafood. Local specialities like *pulpo a la gallega* (tender octopus drizzled with paprika and olive oil) and *vieiras* (scallops) are best enjoyed at a waterfront *marisquería*, paired with a crisp Albariño wine. For a taste of local life, browse the stalls at the Mercado de la Magdalena, where vendors sell everything from fresh *percebes* (gooseneck barnacles) to artisanal cheeses like *tetilla*. The city’s shopping scene centres around Calle Real and Calle Dolores, where you’ll find Galician ceramics, lacework, and *jet* jewellery—unique souvenirs to take home. Ferrol is well-connected by taxi and local buses, making it easy to explore even with limited time in port.
