I checked the weather and it doesn't seem to be too cold, but is there anyone here with more experience that could recommend what you pack?

I'm particularly worried about not getting a nice enough coat that is both warm enough and gives great rain protection.

When I walked the Camino Frances my rain jacket didn't work at all which was unfortunate.

What’s your budget?

You can expect plenty of rain. Waterproof values and breathability are what will count. Warmth is added by layering. Three thin layers is better than one thick one and is readily adjustable

I would like to stay around $100 or $200.

I appreciate the advice.
