Description

The Camino Portugués Coastal Route is a long-distance pilgrimage route following the Atlantic coastline from Porto, Portugal to Santiago de Compostela, Spain. The route traces fishing villages, seaside promenades, coastal trails, and rural Galician paths before joining the main Camino Portugués near Redondela.

It is one of the most scenic Caminos, characterized by ocean views, wooden boardwalks over dunes, historic towns, and quiet countryside roads.

The route is commonly completed by pilgrims in 10–14 days but is also suitable for fastpacking or continuous running.
