Some but not all, and other routes too.
Hi Pilgrims

When I travel to SJPdP I thought I'd wear different clothes then the ones I use for the Camino, rather than carry them all the way to SDC I thought I'd just post them home from SJPdP.
Can you buy boxes at the post office?
 
The 2024 Camino guides will be coming out little by little. Here is a collection of the ones that are out so far.
The first edition came out in 2003 and has become the go-to-guide for many pilgrims over the years. It is shipping with a Pilgrim Passport (Credential) from the cathedral in Santiago de Compostela.

Yes you can Waka. I posted some unwanted gear home from there but I wore my Camino gear on the flight.
 
In SJPdP LaPoste/post office is located on the rue de La Poste and open 09:00 to 12:00 and 14:00 to 17:00 every weekday. It is only open Saturday morning.
 
The focus is on reducing the risk of failure through being well prepared. 2nd ed.

Like @wayfarer, I wear my camino gear. I planned to forward a small amount of warm clothing after the Pyrenees on my first camino, eventually doing that at Los Arcos. My only tip from that experience is that you will need to arrive when the post office is open. It might sound obvious, but I think the sight of me sitting outside the Correos on an Easter Monday waiting for it to open might have been amusing. The look on my face when it dawned on me that it would have been a long wait - priceless.
