Shouldn't some-thing be said about the crude oil spill?
The first sentence is unclear: "Vigo 42°14′14.12″N, 8°43′17.86″W is the largest city in Galicia located in the province of Pontevedra, Spain." Is Vigo the largest city in Galicia? Or is it only the largest city in the province of Pontevedra? (Without a comma between "Galicia" and "located" it would be the latter, but then why not just reword to say that?)

[edit] explanation for removed category
[edit] World War II section and Sunken U-boat category
The Category:Sunken U-boats and the "World War II" section of this article are both odd. The mentioned u-boats were sunk roughly 400 and 500 miles offshore; they can hardly be a local tourist attraction, and there is no mention of any historical implications to Vigo. Because the wrecks are so very far offshore, I am removing Vigo from Category:Sunken U-boats. I would suggest the "World War II" section, while factually accurate, be rewritten to address the impact of WWII on Vigo, not just anecdotally mention events so far removed from it.
