Walking the Camino de Santiago: Portuguese Coastal Way
The Portuguese Coastal Way or Caminho da Costa is a stunning alternative route of the Portuguese Way, the Camino de Santiago trail from Portugal.
Following the Atlantic Coast towards Santiago de Compostela, the Portuguese Coastal Way starts in the colourful UNESCO-listed city Porto and will take you to charming seaside towns and villages in Northern Portugal before crossing by ferry to A Guarda, in Galicia, and the heart of the Rías Baixas.
After the Rías Baixas, walkers will join the traditional Portuguese Way in the coastal town of Redondela to continue on their way to Santiago de Compostela.
Discover the wild Atlantic beauty and sandy beaches of Northern Portugal and Galicia, taste delicious seafood and wine, stay in fishing villages and feel refreshed by the maritime feel of our newest Coastal Camino.
