Cíes Desirae

            Illas Cíes

Vai camiño dos vinte anos que as visitei, que se di pronto, pero lémbroo como se apenas pasasen pouco máis de dezanove.

O certo é que sempre tiven gañas de voltar pero, por unhas ou outras, non sucedeu. É certo que se pode ir e voltar no día, pero coido que as Cíes, polo menos a central e a do norte que son as visitables (comercialmente), non son para quedar apenas unhas poucas horas de día. Como moi pouco, ir un día pola mañán no primeiro barco e voltar ó día seguinte no último.

É diferente a calquer outro tipo de acampada (agás que vaias a Ons) porque non vas poder saír de alí ata que collas o barco de volta. Porque vas ter camiño para andar o que queiras. Porque tes a "mellor praia do mundo", ou iso dixeron pero, se non o é, non lle ha quedar moi lonxe. Incluso se te bañas á unha da mañán baixo a lúa chea como fixemos algúns.

E si, está tan fría como é de imaxinar.

Cíes Islands.

It's been almost twenty years that I visited them, which seems a lot, but I remember it as it just happened a little over nineteen years ago.

Truth be told, I've always wanted to come back but, for one thing or the other, it didn't happen. It's true you can go and come back in the same day, but I think the Cíes, at least the central and the north ones which are the ones you can visit (comercially), are not to stay just for a few hours during the day. At the very least, you should go one day on the first ship in the morning and come back on the next day in the evening.

It's different to any other camping site (unless you go to Ons) because you can't get out of there until you get on the ship back. Because you have paths to walk as long as you feel like. Because you have the "best beach in the world", or so they said but, if it isn't, it's not far from it. Even if you take a bath at one in the morning under the full moon as some of us did.

And yes, it's as cold as you can imagine.
