The Camino Portuguese Coastal route goes from Baiona to Santiago and is an alternative to the Portuguese Way that starts from Porto. The Camino Portuguese Coastal route gives you lovely walking along the Portuguese coast, before moving inland for the push towards Santiago de Compostela.

Pilgrims choose the Portuguese Coastal Camino for many reasons, but one is that this trail typically has better weather on the southern coast of Galicia, always somewhat more pleasant than the north, with milder temperatures and less rainfall. From the fifth day on, the tour will be emulating the “Traslatio” of the Apostle, who entered Galicia through the Ría de Arousa.

The start of our tour, which begins in the beautiful town of Baiona, will take place near some of the most spectacular beaches in southern Galicia, very popular areas in summer. You will spend one night in the city of Vigo, one of the main cities in Galicia, which tends to surprise by its size and cosmopolitan style, although it also has the classic charm of the Galician historical centers, that kind of stone decorations full of life and flavour.

In the town of Redondela you will meet the pilgrims who make the central Portuguese Way route through the interior. From this point, the paths are joined.

Once you leave the coastal route, beautiful landscapes of Galicia awaits you: forests, vineyards and cultivated fields until you reach Compostela.

Hike to Vigo
This first stage of the Portuguese Coastal Camino is fascinating with its landscapes. On the way to Vigo, you hike to Nigrán, past beaches such as Panxón, Patos and Samil until you reach the largest city in Galicia, Vigo. The difficulty today lies in the kilometers and differences in altitude. There is also a possibility to hike inland towards Priegue and Coruxo and then go along the river path. This option can be a little less interesting, especially access to Vigo as it's an industrial area.
