Discover Galician Nature together with a visit to one of the main Pilgrimage destination in the world
  • Drive into the “end of the world”.

  • Discover the Coast of Death.

  • Wild nature.

  • Impressive ocean views.


Discover the coast of Death, due to the many shipwrecks in this part of the Atlantic coast in Galicia. As amazing as dangerous the sea hits the coastline, and the cliffs, but the views are amazing in a clear day but astonishing on a stormy and windy time. 

Our first stop will be the beacon at Cabo Vilan, one of the windiest places in Galicia. 

At muxia, the final stage of the pilgrim route after the famous goal of Santiago de Compostela. This seaside resort is famous for the church of Nosa Señora da Barca, built on a promontory, where, according to tradition, the Madonna is said to have appeared to Saint James. 

Back in Finisterre, the End of the known world or at least what the Romans thought it was the end. Also is the end of the Way to Santiago, after pilgrims arrive in Santiago many of them continue the journey to the promontory, the end of the earth. Just the Atlantic Ocean in front of you and a lonely light house to warn the ships.
