The Ría de Muros e Noia is the smallest of the Rías Baixas as well as the most northern. The part of the ria known as Muros is in the area closest to the mouth (outer zone), while the Noia portion is farther in the estuary near the head (inner zone). Out of all five Rias Baixas, this is the only one not to have islands near the mouth. The principal river to join the Ría de Muros e Noia is the Tambre. Important natural features in the area are the mountain and lagoon of Louro as well as the Corrubedo wetlands.
