(07 to 20 September 2026)
2026 Coastal Way
The Camino de Santiago, or Way of St. James, was the third most important pilgrimage in Christendom, with historic routes converging at the tomb of St. James in Santiago de Compostela, Spain. This journey begins with a refreshing coastal experience, where the sea breeze, rugged cliffs, and serene beaches set the tone for reflection and renewal.
