International Environment Day. Conference "The energy transition of ports: improving their environmental integration"

As part of the PORTOS project (Ports towards energy self-sufficiency), funded by the European Interreg Atlantic Area call, the Port of Vigo invites you to a Conference to delve into the energy transition of ports and the improvement of their environmental integration.

The conference, open to the public, will take place on June 5th at 10:00 a.m. in the Sessions Building of the Port Authority of Vigo (you can check the full agenda HERE).

Visits to the Underwater Observatory

Furthermore, we continue to discover what lies beneath the waters of the Port of Vigo. Until June 15th, Nautilus will keep its doors open for you to learn more about the daily life of the Port of Vigo, the projects it is working on, and the life that inhabits its waters.

Visits to the underwater observatory are guided, completely free, and have an approximate duration of 30 minutes. They are intended for school groups and collectives (by reservation) as well as the general public (without reservation), according to the following days and hours:
