Your route for the Camino Inglés

Since the discovery of the Apostle's tomb, the so-called ports of Santiago de Compostela have received pilgrims from all over Europe, mainly from England and Ireland, who wish to reach the Jacobean city. The sea route is not an easy journey, and the ‘youngest of the oceans’ – the Atlantic - escorts the pilgrim through strong winds and storms during the crossing. But once on land, Galicia warmly welcomes the pilgrim still shaken up by the ocean’s vigor.

Now is the time to begin an unforgettable adventure following in the footsteps of the people from the north who arrived on the Galician shores bound for Santiago. The Camino Inglés allows the pilgrims the opportunity to immerse themselves in the most challenging of Jacobean maritime routes, whose gastronomy and authenticity mark every step of this journey.

History of the Camino Inglés

Relations between Britain, Ireland and northern Spain, on the other, are more than a thousand years old. There is a 10th century document signed by a bishop of Bristol (England) condemning the slave trade between the north of the Peninsula and the islands.
