Ria de Ribadeo
| |
| |
The Ria de Ribadeo is situated on the coast of NW Spain around 25 miles ESE of the Ria de Viveiro and 35 miles W of Cudillero. Basically, a shallow river estuary spanned at its entrance by a high road bridge, the ria offers good shelter in all but strong N winds, when it becomes difficult to enter. A visiting yacht can anchor with care in the bight on the E side of the ria, opposite the town of Ribadeo on the W side, or berth in the small marinas next to the town.

- 1096 – Ribadeo

- C43 – Santander to A Coruna
Weather
The ria is largely sheltered from the prevailing NW winds, but strong northerlies can raise an unpleasant swell and even make it impossible to enter.
Sources for Weather forecasts:
- See Spain
Passages
List popular passages/routes, timing, etc.
Communication
Add here VHF channel for the coastguard, harbor masters. etc.
Also see World Cruiser's Nets.
The entrance is barely half a mile wide and can be difficult to spot in poor visibility. However, when level with the entrance the road bridge across the estuary is conspicuous. The deeper water is on the W side of the channel upon entering. Once under the bridge (which has an air draft of 35 metres), the deep water channel splits and a yacht should either keep right if heading for the town marina or bear left along the channel which runs close to the E bank and round the sandbank of El Teson.
Berthing
Visiting yachts have two main options in the ria: berthing in the marina of the Club Nautico de Ribadeo just after the bridge on starboard or anchoring anywhere along the channel that runs along the E bank before opening out into a large shallow pool, off the settlement of Castropol.

Anchorages
SE of Bridge
The best anchorages in the ria are found along the channel that curves around the E shore after the bridge is transited and leads around the sandbank of El Teson a mile upstream to the shallow pool off Castropol. It is possible to anchor anywhere convenient along this channel, but beware of swinging into shallow water as the tide drops, especially towards the entrance where the channel is quite narrow.
Depths are seldom much more than 3.0 – 5.0 metres anywhere along the channel and the tidal range can be anything up to 2.0 metres. The holding, however, is excellent in mud and sand and shelter (at least in the N part of the channel) is good in all but strong westerlies.Ensenad de Arnao
