Creator's Key Takeaways

We're in Laaruna in Spain. We got off the ship this morning. We had a quick breakfast.

I think tours are a great option for a lot of people that don't want to pay for the tour, show up at point A.

It's only 10 minutes. There were two taxis available. It was only €8 per taxi cuz we needed two taxis.

Everything's closed from 2:00 to 5:00. So, we're going to head back to the ship.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Take the number three bus from the cruise terminal to get around La Coruña.
Use Google Maps to find bus stops and navigate to attractions.
Consider a taxi tour if you're a group of three or four people.
Check local hours as many places close from 2:00 to 5:00, especially on Mondays.

We started our morning by taking the # 3 city bus (€1.30 per person) from the cruise terminal to Monte de San Pedro, where we discovered amazing coastal views, historic cannons, and even a fun maze for the kids. From there, we headed to the Tower of Hercules, the world’s oldest functioning lighthouse and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Along the way, we enjoyed local playgrounds, coffee, beer, and ice cream stops before strolling back toward the ship. We also wandered through the Plaza María Pita, local markets, and charming side streets before returning to the cruise terminal.
