Early morning sello in Ferrol

[Hilly]

Due to a late arriving flight I'm planning on getting the early train from A Coruña to Ferrol which arrives just before 8am. Tourist office will be closed. Ideas please on where to get a first stamp near the starting point.

Maybe at the train station?

Any cafe. Worst case, somewhere like
the cafe attached to Hotel Almendra. Opens moderately early (7.00?). Good coffee and only a couple of blocks from the Camino on the route out of town.

Buen Camino!

I don't think the starting point needs to be at the tourist office or a church. I got mine last month from our hotel in Ferrol before we headed on our way. Probably any bar in town or business that is open early will at least have a return address stamp to offer.

Any bar or café that is open. You don’t really need one from you start point and if you get one from your first night’s accommodation, you can still get the 2 a day for your compostela.

You're right it doesn't but the 'recognized' starting point is actually at the port, just down the road from the information office.

Ooh, that would be a bit different!

Ah, my first night will be in La Coruña and I won't be staying in Ferrol, just passing through.

Dick means your first night actually on the trail (eg Neda, Pontdeume) for your second stamp of the day. The first being any location that you find open in Ferrol.
