The Camino del Mar, recognized as a Jacobean route, has been documented over time as a pilgrimage route along the coast to Viveiro, continuing along the shoreline until it connects with the English Way in Neda. When walking it, you will enjoy the Cantabrian coast of Galicia and follow the coast of Ortegal and the Ferrolterra region, discovering landscapes, nature, coastal towns, seafaring traditions, culture, and visiting ancient pilgrimage sites, such as the oldest cathedral in Spain, the Basilica of San Martiño, and the second most important pilgrimage site in Galicia, San Andrés de Teixido, before reaching the most important one: the Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela.
The Camino del Mar passes through the municipalities of Ribadeo, Barreiros, Foz, Burela, Cervo, Xove, O Vicedo, Mañón, Ortigueira, Cariño, Cedeira, Valdoviño, and Neda, where it intersects with the Camino Inglés on the route to Santiago de Compostela.
