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.

Location - Monte Aro

Our hostel is located in the town hall of Mazaricos, in the Lake Place, on the road to Finisterre, and located just 400mts from Mount Aro. Thanks to its

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.

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.

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.
