Walking Coastal way to Santiago

BLEND BEACHES, COUNTRYSIDE AND HISTORICAL TOWNS ON AN ANCIENT PILGRIM WALKING TRAIL FROM PORTO TO SANTIAGO DE COMPOSTELA

Before you begin your Portuguese Coastal Way to Santiago, pay a visit to the 12th century Porto Cathedral and take time to explore the city. Transfer to Matosinhos to walk alongside the ocean towards the pretty old town of Vila do Conde, with a lace-making tradition and strong naval history. The coastal towns of Povoa da Varzim, Esposende and Vila Praia de Âncora offer particularly fresh seafood. Viana do Castelo gives you the chance to explore its medieval history and detour to visit Santa Luzia basilica for magnificent views. Then weave your way through Portuguese countryside and back to the Atlantic Portuguese coast near Caminha, just across the river from Spain.
