A Coruña is a breezy Galician port city wrapped almost entirely by sea, famous for its glass-galleried houses and the Tower of Hercules — the oldest working Roman lighthouse on Earth. It pairs beaches and a curving promenade with a walkable old town, and like its neighbour Vigo it's a gateway to Santiago de Compostela. Fresh seafood and Atlantic light define the place.
The Tower of Hercules is the one true must — a working Roman lighthouse you can climb, surrounded by a clifftop sculpture walk. If Santiago calls, it's an easy hour away; otherwise A Coruña's beaches and old town fill a relaxed day on foot.
