This group of islands is part of the Atlantic Islands of Galicia Maritime-Terrestrial National Park, a protected natural area that preserves some of the most representative landscapes of the Galician Atlantic coast.

Its famous Rodas Beach, which connects the islands of Monteagudo and Do Faro, was named the best beach in the world by the British newspaper The Guardian.
