August 2018 SJPP to Santiago
Hello All - I will start my second camino May 19 in Porto and am undecided on the coastal or more inland routes to Tui. Any suggestions are very welcome.
My first camino was SJPP in 2013, and will be doing that again this summer.

Be well folks

3rd Edition. More content, training & pack guides avoid common mistakes, bed bugs etc
What you like ! The central route is great, the coastal is great ! If you like the ocean or antigue places like Barcelos, Ponte de Lima and Valença do Minho
I like both route. I even walk a part of the coastal and a tiny bit of the central coming april.
Look at some youtube vids. There are thousands of them to make up your mind

Boa sorte e bom caminho !
Abraço

As Albertino says both routes are great, I've done them many times ! I like best the Coastal as the scenery is stunning and is slightly flatter! You pass some amazing places like Vila do Conde, Esposende, Viana do Castelo, Caminha, A Guarda, Oia, Mougas, Baiona...You really must consult all the routes on the Blog of my great mate Luis Freixo see www.caminador.es He has the best information which is all free and easy to transfer to your Smartphone much better than many of the expensive guides that now exist...
 
The one from Galicia (the round) and the one from Castilla & Leon. Individually numbered and made by the same people that make the ones you see on your walk.
