Founded in 1907 as the first cultural centre of the town of Bouzas, it later became the Artistic and Instructive Lyceum, being located in its beginnings in an old Salting factory in Barreras. In 1971 it moved to the current building, becoming over time the Vice-Dean of the Galician Nautical Club, after the Real Club de Regatas de Villagarcia de Arosa. Throughout its long history, different sporting sections were created, some of which are still fully active today, such as the case of Rapido de Bouzas, which was born in the Liceo and later, in 1917, continued as a club, in an independent way, keeping the yellow and black colours of its founder.
