Walk the streets of Marín and immerse yourself in its history
Here you can find everything from the places most frequented by the people of Marín themselves, where you can feel like a local, to spots full of tradition, charm and life.

Marín has a clear seafaring tradition that is breathed throughout the town. If you walk along the cobbled streets of its old town, you will discover the fishermen’s houses that still retain their original aesthetics. Wandering around, you can enjoy sea and farm produce in its emblematic Plaza de Abastos (Food Market) or continue your pleasant walk as far as the refreshing Paseo Alcalde Blanco avenue or the large port of Marín. Another point of reference when talking about Marín and its history that you should not miss is the majestic Naval Academy.
