The Portuguese Coastal Camino de Santiago
The Portuguese Coastal Camino de Santiago – Last 100 km tour begins in Spain’s Galician town of Baiona.
Baiona is one of the most attractive and important coastal towns in Galicia. Its protected bays offer beaches with character and safe harbor in its fishing port. There’s no shortage of fresh seafood in the town’s many tapas bars and restaurants so enjoy all the tastes and sips available!
Before leaving Baiona to begin your Camino, take some time to explore its medieval streets and churches as well as the Monterreal fortress on the peninsular.
Then follow the Camino da Costa through countryside, forest and villages to the city of Vigo, looking out for views of the Cies islands in the Ria de Vigo estuary.
This route merges with the Central Camino de Santiago in Redondela, taking you through the delightful Galician countryside with stops in historical Pontevedra, the spa town of Caldas de Reis and Padrón, a town that’s strongly linked to the legend of St. James, before the ultimate destination of Santiago de Compostela and its magnificent cathedral.
