Need to book hostals in advance?

Doing my first camino, Santiago to Finisterre, on my own and setting out from Santiago to Negreira on saturday morning.
I have read a lot of advice on this amazing forum, but really dont know what to expect as regards booking accomodation.
Can I just leave early on saturday morning and find something in Negreira when I get there or do I really need to book in advance?

Hi irishdon, Am just ahead of you!
I left Santiago this morning. I arrived in Negreira around 11:00am!
Most of the albergues weren't even open, but I had the pick of a least 4!
There's are 2 before you really enter the main town, I preferred something a bit closer to were the Camino restarted!
Am staying in the Albergue Carmen, its above a cafe/restaurant! I was the only Pilgrim here till about 2pm, a few more arrived, but it's still virtually empty!
Dont booked anything, just walk in

Where did you stay on your way to the coast?

Just finished walking. We did not book and had no problems.
