New venue: Sanxenxo

Aleria next to superyacht Valoria Sanxenxo (pronounced Sanshensho) is a holiday resort town on the north shore of the Ria de Pontevedra just east of Portonovo. We decided to stop into Nauta Marina, the closest point to the vineyards and winery of Paco & Lola, which is only about 6 km from Sanxenxo where there is a big marina. It's usually crowded with a big private club and disco in the marina which hops until the wee hours. We've known people who left in the middle of the night to avoid it. But it's early in the season and the club is still closed. The town doesn't really have much to offer except a remarkable old church with an intricately ornate interior and lots of Marys. There are lots of restaurants and shops beneath postmodern apartment buildings lining the waterfront strung with smaller beaches.
