En Marea (translated in English as "In Tide")[2][3] was a political party and former political alliance integrated by Podemos, Anova, United Left of Galicia, and some municipal alliances that participated in the 2015 Spanish local elections (Marea Atlántica, Compostela Aberta, and Ferrol en Común).[4] It was formed in November 2015 as an electoral coalition to contest the 2015 Spanish general election in Galicia.[5] As part of the coalition agreement with Podemos, the name on the ballot paper for both the 2015 and 2016 general elections was Podemos–En Marea–Anova–EU.[6][7]

En Marea would receive the support of Galician Eco-socialist Space (EcoSoGal) for the 2015 general election,[8] which was joined by Equo's support in the June 2016 election.[9] Both parties would end up joining the confluence in the run up to the 2016 Galician regional election,[10] ahead of which the coalition partners chose to constitute En Marea as a political party, which was officially registered as such on 10 August 2016.[11][12]

In January 2019, the party saw its founding members — Podemos, Anova, and EU, as well as the local tides — splitting and eventually coalescing around the Galicia en Común alliance.
