Bus to Fisterra from €7.35, to Muxía from €6.85, to the airport €1

Checked 23/09/2026

All buses leave from the intermodal station, Rúa Clara Campoamor, s/n. Not from Plaza de Galicia or the old station. Some pilgrims have missed their bus by going to the wrong station.

These bus timetables change with the season and the websites only show them day by day. The ones you see here are for 23 September 2026: use them to get an idea, not to rely on the exact time two months from now.

ALSA Santiago → Porto
“From €15” according to ALSA’s general page for Portugal. Frequencies only in their search engine.

Intermodal station: open from 5:45 to 0:00. Information point every day from 6:30 to 22:30. City bus lines 6, 6A, 12, C5, C6 and P3 stop here.

Train to Madrid: Renfe doesn’t let you read fixed timetables outside its search engine. I won’t give you a timetable I haven’t been able to check.

When you don’t need this: If you have a car or you’re going home with an agency that picks you up, you don’t need any of this.

Pending: Monbus winter timetables and the real frequency of ALSA buses to Porto: I’ll check them when the season changes and update the date.

Questions

Do you need to buy the ticket in advance?

Monbus sells tickets on its website and at the station. It doesn’t say whether you need to book ahead in summer. If you’re going in August, buy your ticket the day before.

How long does it take to walk to Fisterra?

The Xunta splits Santiago–Fisterra into 4 stages (119.9 km going via Muxía) or 5. You’ll find them under Routes.

Do you get a commission from Monbus or ALSA?

No. None of the links on this page pay me anything.

What next?

See what’s still open at the time you arrive, or what you still have time to do: Santiago, now. If something else has come up: I have a problem.
