I also have property in Obidos (west coast Portugal). My normal route is Plymouth/Santander?Lisbon and the Iberian road journey is close to 500 miles. I see that many Portuguese venturers would welcome a UK ferry link to Galicia (VIGO?). The Portuguese proposals to develop their west coast would surely benefit by having a direct link UK to Galicia. Altho I am not now a golfer, the forthcoming major golf developments in the neighbourhood of Obidos would surely make good use of the noted ferry routing, as well as the commercial vehicles that now journey from Portugal to the UK.

In a Memorandum submitted by Milford Haven Port Authority (MHPA) (P8) then it was stated 13. As a port, we recognise we have spare capacity in our ferry terminal and are actively pursuing other routes and opportunities and in particular are working with the Port of Ferrol in North West Spain to develop a new freight service for unaccompanied freight vehicles. So your nearest Ferry service is probably going to be Santander to Plymouth I’m afraid there appears to be no verifiable news since this idea was mooted last May.
