From a document on sailing directions.
Una vez estemos en la *oposición* Faro Ribadeo - Punta de la Cruz pondremos rumbo a Punta Arroxo (Rv=140º) hasta entrar en la *oposición* Punta de la Cruz - Muelle de García (del propio Club Náutico).
As far as my research has indicated, "oposición" is a point on the "enfilación", but I can't find a translation for it in English.
Spanish from Spain.

"Once we cross the line joining FR and PdC..."
It seems best to use something like this. It describes how fasr into the estuary yo go befor changing course. I suppose the lateral limit instructions have been or will be given.
Tricky channels up north with wide tidal ranges...

Have a look at this, you can see the numerous light houses, one Punta Arroxo, for transits.
