I will be starting the Camino Monday, August 7th from SJPdP. I am planning on shipping some of my belongings to be stored in Santiago, but is the post office open on Sundays?

Never on Sundays for the French post office to ship a parcel!

Here is their weekly schedule
and address .

Two things, if you ship stuff from France to Spain it will be much more expensive than if you ship it nationally (inside Spain), second, yes, post offices are usually closed on Sundays in France, see https://www.laposte.fr/particulier/...reau-detail/saint-jean-pied-de-port-bp/12125A Third, if shipping internationally make sure to label your parcel correctly (something like personal belongings, no value etc, ask @ivar for exact advice). I vaguely remember to see posters advertising transporting pilgrims luggage directly from SJPdP to Santiago, perhaps somebody else can chime in on that one?
Buen Camino, SY

Express Bourricot transports direct from SJPdP to SdC. See more here on their web.

No. Everything is closed at the slightest excuse of a holiday including Sundays.
