Starting in Porto on 4 September. How has the traffic been to Santiago? Pretty normal or very crowded?
Thanks

I’m on the CP coastal right now so I don’t have any specific info for the central, but I think you can assume it will be pretty crowded. The 20-bed albergue I’m at in Baiona tonight is full.

When did it become full? Full before 2:30 because of reservations, full soon after 2:30 due to pilgrims lined up at opening, or full after 5:30 because staff wanted to call it a day?

When I arrived at about 3pm the ‘completo’ sign was up, as all beds were either already taken or reserved.
