Lamiña Beach

Highlight • Beach

Very long beach and very good for swimming, as there is a bay here without dangerous currents and also an official bathing beach.

Castrexo Pine Forest

Highlight • Forest

It is worth taking a look into the trees, as different Celtic symbols can be recognized from certain angles. An entertaining guessing game.

Of course I didn't walk the Way of St. James again, but along the coast in a much nicer way. Taking a private taxi boat from the campsite in Caminha is also the shorter way. He's definitely prettier.

September 10, 2021,WCP21-1: Ferry Portugal 🇵🇹- A Guarda 🇪🇸

Today finally our first stage of the Camino Portugues in Spain 🇪🇸

From the harbor in A Guarda (or La Guardia, as it is called in Gallego) you walk comfortably along the sea on boardwalks towards Miño, the river bordering Portugal.

On the way there are always small playas to cool off - and the Atlantic is really refreshing 🥶

But the Albariño in our favorite bodega is also really refreshing 😂🥂
