» Halloween Special – Dinner and Music

Looking for a different Halloween celebration? Discover with Naviera Mar de Ons how to spend a different Halloween night, where the sea – once again – becomes the protagonist of our night parties.
Few people imagine that, in our land of Galicia, there existed a celebration that was much older than the famous American Halloween. This festival had Celtic roots and was also known as the day of the faithful dead or Samaín, which means the “end of the summer”. It was celebrated thousands of years ago across the whole of the Celtic territory, on the night of 31 October to 1 November.

The best music on board, a menu created especially for the occasion, and the best costumes await you on the night of the 31st of October. Undoubtedly the best choice for going out in Vigo on Halloween, the most terrifyingly fun night of the year.

In recent years, Vigo has been a favourite destination for many travellers at Christmas. Its lights, its markets, its tree and giant ferris wheels. In December Vigo gets dressed up and Naviera Mar de Ons, too!
Our Christmas Special win dinner and music on board service will make your visit during the Christmas holidays to the city of Vigo complete and you will enjoy all the charms that the city and the Ría de Vigo have to offer.

Naviera Mar de Ons offers you the chance to have dinner on board, sail with the lights of Vigo in the background and go into the heart of the Ría de Vigo where you will find another protagonist, the Rande Bridge.
