Hello everyone!
In the middle of May I will go to Coastal Portuguese Camino. The gronze.com application currently states that Albergue de peregrinos São José de Ribamar is closed in Póvoa de Varzim. This is where I was going to stay. Does anyone know to tell if this is true? Maybe in May the situation will change?

Thank you in advance!:)
 
Technical backpack for day trips with backpack cover and internal compartment for the hydration bladder. Ideal daypack for excursions where we need a medium capacity backpack. The back with Air Flow System creates large air channels that will keep our back as cool as possible.

Get a spanish phone number with Airalo. eSim, so no physical SIM card. Easy to use app to add more funds if needed.

Good idea, the more apps the more choices as no one app/web page has a complete list. I would also call too just to make sure. When. walked the VDLP albergues listed as non covid closed or listed as open were not always accurate. It did seem that Covid closures were, if I remember correctly correct.

I checked some Portuguese websites about this albergue but none of them say that it should be closed.
maybe you try it later during the day by phoning.
I have been there before and remember that there were blue plastic matrasses and you have to take a sleepliner with you.
 
Ideal sleeping bag liner whether we want to add a thermal plus to our bag, or if we want to use it alone to sleep in shelters or hostels. Thanks to its mummy shape, it adapts perfectly to our body.

A good idea! I knew, but unfortunately the day I arrived, this hostel is full:(
Try Sardines and Friends, a nice place. You can get the Metro to Povoa (goes from the airport) and avoid the walk out of Porto if you wish.

Thanks for the suggestion, I'll try to call them

Do I need to bring my own pillow & pillow case for albergues?
Hi, Has anyone stayed in Armenteira recently? I’ve contacted Victor the Taxi to try and reserve a bunk at the Slbuergue de peregrinos. He told me to contact “ Albergue de San Ero de Armenteira”...
