Sanxenxo

Sanxenxo (in Spanish language: Sangenjo) is a municipality in Galicia, Spain in the province of Pontevedra. It is a popular tourism destination. Sanxenxo is widely regarded as the best and certainly the most exclusive and expensive beach resort in Galicia. Sanxenxo has the highest beach side real estate prices in not just Galicia, but the whole of Spain and one Spanish survey suggested that they were the most expensive in Europe.

The busiest time to visit Sanxenxo is in July and August when this normally semi-deserted town is full of tourists. The bay area at this resort enjoys some of the warmest waters in all of Galicia. The entire area around this beach mecca is full of outstanding beaches and numerous former fishing towns. Sanxenxo welcomed the Volvo Ocean Race 2005-2006 started on November 12, 2005 from Vigo. The race organisation and the competing teams chose Sanxenxo as their base in Spain. An In Port race took place in Sanxenxo on November 5. It gave spectators a chance to see the race boats at close quarters. Graphic sourced with thanks from Sanxenxoapartamentos.com
