From its source in the Lugo area of A Ulloa to its mouth in the Ría Arousa, the River Ulla runs approx. 132 km and drains a basin of 2,803 km². The final 15 km from Pontecesures can be navigated up to its mouth in the Ría Arousa. It is the third-longest river in Galicia after the Miño and the Sil, and serves as the provincial border between A Coruña and Pontevedra. The estuary marks the northern and western edge of the territory, bordering Vilagarcía de Arousa and Vilanova de Arousa to the south-east. The Torres de Oeste castle is located at this strategic point of the estuary, in Catoira. It's perfect for doing aquatic sports. It's an annual tradition to row upriver from Villagarcía de Arousa to Pontecesures on the Maritime Route of Mar de Arousa and Ulla, one of the routes to Santiago
