The last time I walked to the coast I followed the stages recommended by Albergue Monte Aro, which was a great place to stay. It's before the Fisterra/Muxía split so you can go either way.


I walked from Santiago to the coast in three days my first time, and four in subsequent Caminos. Four days was a nicer pace. Between Fisterra and Muxía I took two days and took the opportunity to relax in Lires.
 
The 2024 Camino guides will be coming out little by little. Here is a collection of the ones that are out so far.

I walked Santiago to Finesterre, then on to Muxia via Lires. In Lires, we stayed at LiresCa Hotel and Restaurant. Privates rooms, don't remember the cost, quite nice. But the real attraction was the restaurant. The food was wonderful, all of it. Even if you don't stay there, try to eat at the restaurant. Order the Bleu Cheese Cheesecake if they still offer it.
 
Ideal pocket guides for during & after your Camino. Each weighs only 1.4 oz (40g)!

Hi Jodi
I walked SdC to Fisterra last year. 3 days, just under 100kms which by that stage was not too challenging. First night at Albergue Casa Vella in Vilaserío (34 kms) a lovely rural village, second night at the albergue at Ologoso (about 25kms). It left quite a big day to Fisterra but like a horse seeing its home paddock there was no shortage of energy😉. If you’re comfortable with those distances I’d recommend both places.

I thoroughly recommend the albergue A Casa do Bois, Ventosa. It's about 10km out of S de C. It's a handful of metres down a small alleyway - look out for a noticeboard pointing the way at the intersection. It's so good, I went back twice 😊 It has dorm rooms and private rooms, a restaurant/bar, a kitchen to die for, and a relaxing veranda to chill out, enjoy a drink and recoup a little. Is spotlessly clean and has a very calm vibe.
