CMAT – Costa da Morte Tourism Association closes its programme of guided experiences held this weekend, 13, 14 and 15 November, with a positive assessment. A total of 150 people took part in the various activities organised to discover the area from perspectives as diverse as nature, heritage, maritime culture, crafts and astrotourism.
The initiative, which took place ahead of the 6th Costa da Morte Tourism Meeting, was well received by the public, who showed interest in the different activities and filled all available places in some of them.
Over the three days, participants were able to learn about fishing activity at the Malpica fish market, discover the night sky from Camariñas, learn about the craftwork of Nacho Porto in Carnota, visit the former whaling station at Caneliñas, explore the historical and archaeological heritage of Brandomil, discover botany and the use of wild resources in A Laracha, and learn first-hand about the work of a barnacle harvester at Cape Roncudo with Suso Lista.
The programme also included a walk along Senda do Xallas, in Mazaricos, which ultimately had to be cancelled due to heavy rainfall in recent hours, leaving the route impassable and without the safety conditions needed for the activity to take place. This was, in fact, the activity with the highest number of registrations, with around 50 people expected.
Despite this cancellation, the seven activities that could take place brought together 150 participants, a response that confirms the interest in these types of experiences, which offer a different perspective on Costa da Morte, in small groups accompanied by professionals and experts from the area itself.
The positive reception of this first programme encourages the association to continue organising themed weekends with different guided experiences. CMAT hopes to continue this line of work with the support of the Deputación da Coruña, through grant scheme DP0030/2026, broadening opportunities for both local residents and visitors to discover and get to know Costa da Morte better.
