Checked online 16 October 2026

Official timetable this week: buses from Santiago to Fisterra and Muxía, and back, with the times from the Xunta search engine (bus.gal). See the timetable ›

Bus from Santiago de Compostela to Fisterra and Muxía: run by Monbus, leaving from the intermodal station (Rúa Clara Campoamor, s/n). Prices read on 23 September 2026: to Fisterra from €7.35 and to Muxía from €6.85.

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.

Monbus Santiago → Fisterra
From €7.35. On 23 September 2026: 8:45 (direct, arrives 10:00), 9:00, 9:30, 10:00, 13:00 and 18:30 (with stops, between 2 h 10 and 2 h 55).
Monbus Santiago → Muxía

TUSSA line 6A → airport
€1.00 for a standard ticket. From Rúa do Hórreo (intermodal station), roughly every 30 minutes, from 6:00 to 22:45. About 25 minutes on the direct service.
Taxi to the airport
€23.00 (approximate fare published by Santiago Tourism).
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.

Group day trip: if you’d rather not take the bus, several agencies do Fisterra and Muxía in one day from Santiago. You can see them, for example, on Civitatis. It is an ordinary link: it doesn’t pay me anything.

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. Monbus and ALSA pay me nothing. There are no ads. If you buy through some links, the brand gives me a share. You pay the same as buying directly from them, and it does not change what I tell you.

Spotted something wrong? Tell me

I read it myself and check the source before changing anything. Don’t include personal data.

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.

Where to sleep? Albergues in Santiago de Compostela: public and private, with their phone and the ones closest to the gate you walk in through.

Let me know if this changes

If the opening hours, the location or the price on this page change, you’ll get an email. Just that. If nothing changes, I won’t write.
