Best I found was to head To get there just walk out from the airport in city, or ask the direction driver of Ovideothe airport bus (it leaves from zona nueva and bus terminal) to drop you off close to here (1 €, some Spanish will be useful to explain what you want). This   [[South towards Vigo and Pontevedra]] There is a Repsol service station on the SC 20 that can be accessed by foot where many drivers are going south. To get there you can take the number 5 bus to the terminus located on Rua da Poza Real de abaixo. Just several metres uphill you'll come across a mini roundabout, go under the autovia to the other side and immediately turn left up the stairs. Then follow the footpath at the side of the coastal road routefor 2 minutes and you will arrive at the service station. There's a water tap outside, however I cannot confirm that it's água portable. From here  I approached people and asked in Español "hola, una cosa! Estás yendo hacia Pontevedra, por casualidad?" (Hey, one thing! Are you going towards Pontevedra, by any chance?)It's better if you try and speak Spanish instead of English.If someone respondes with "si" or "porque?"Follow up by saying "ah cool, yo tambien. Estoy viajando por España con me mochila y haciendo autostop. Créas que me podrias acercar alla, por favor?"(Ah cool, me too. I'm travelling through España with my backpack and hitchhiking. Do you think you could take me there , please?) I was able to find a ride after asking roughly 30 people for about 25 mins. == Food and Drink == There is an oldschool and very cheap place with a lot great atmosphere and a terrace with a small statue at the beginning of tourists and Castron Douro street, if you are more liekly to get soethere from Virxe de Cerca street. I've greatly enjoyed my time there,one foreign who not only it is more likely dirt cheap, but it also caters to pick all your needs and you up than can get local food and drinks. However, as the indigenousowners are old, you can't expect to order there in English.
