1 review of Port of Sao Pedro da Torre

On the Riverbank of the Mino River

Following the banks of the Miño river to its mouth, not far from Valenca do Minho, is the small town of San Pedro da Torre. The most interesting thing about this town, for me, was its small little port on the banks of the Miño, a place full of life, where you can see the fishermen doing their daily chores, untangling their nets, cleaning their small boats, chatting and watch their friends fishing downstream. Although I am not familiar with this area, I think the fishermen are becoming fewer and fewer in this river, in this part of Spain and in Portugal, and so I find it very curious. Unfortunately, places like these and in this river, the fishing has almost completely disappeared because of the huge amount of pollution killing off the fish, but this is only my opinion.

When we went in January, the fishermen were mainly fishing lamprey to be sold to restaurants and individuals, a very typical dish here, on either riverbank.
