Geography of Galicia

The geography of Galicia (Spain) is characterized by the contrast between the low altitude coastal relief and, further inland, by the higher altitude of the Galician Massif which itself offers contrasts between the morphology of the high northern plains and the southern mountains and valleys.

The territory of Galicia is between 43°47′ N (Estaca de Bares) and 41°49′ N (Portela do Home, border with Portugal) in latitude. In longitude, the territory lies between 6°42′ W (boundary between Ourense and Zamora) and 9°18′ W (Cape Touriñán).

The Galician coast has 1,500 km and has many incoming and outgoing and small islands, and in general is steep declines or little soft. Alternate locations with different characteristics, as in the Rias Baixas' Corrubedo or the Cantabrian Mariña de Lugo, the first features a coastal dune in a low profile, and the second a high geological deposition zone on its original level. Most of the population lives along the Atlantic estuaries in the major urban centers and their areas of influence. The estuaries are important fisheries, helping the Galician coast is one of the most important fishing areas in the world. They also attract many tourists to the magnificent views and beaches.
