Very comfortable, good showers. Only 4 of us, breakfast is some biscuits, coffee and muesli. No shop nearby and restaurants quite expensive so recommend going to the supermarket in Castro Urdiales for dinner.

I haven't tried the albergue, but for sure there is one. The accomodation list is not full

In May 2024 I was able to book the Islares Pilgrim Hostel. It was 25 euro a night inc coffee and a small breakfast. Very organised and nice lady running it. Privacy curtain at bunk bed. They have a website and I WhatsApp them to book ahead.

We stayed here and don’t regret it for a second (even though it was a bit chilly). Filipe and Sylvia were good hosts. Felipe prepared a feast for us! There are triple bunks but they have an extra high ceiling! Lots of lockers provided.

The short route (along the road) from Orton to Castro U is fine. Very little traffic and nice views.
In Islares, Hotel Arenillas has apparently famous menu del dia with huge quantities for 17€.

As of June 2023 the old municipal alburgue in Islares has been reopened as a private alburgue and renamed the Islares Hostel. I just stayed there and loved it. Very clean, efficient and good value. You can book in advance and they speak English.

We walked from Islares to El Ponterron along the road. It was not as scary or dangerous as we thought it might be. I am not sure if the route has changed a bit, but there was a bit of a path for walkers the whole way and most of the way there were guardrails between you and the road. We even passed two different local couples walking alongside the road. It was a Monday so perhaps traffic was light. It wasn't the nicest walk, by any means, but not as scary or as dangerous as we were expecting

Rastro at playa de Oriñon (street market that takes place in sundays) with clothes and food. Lots of bread, chease and fruit. Beautiful beach and good longboarding waves are low tide

After Islares you will have to walk along the highway which is very dangerous,the road just too narrow in my opinion.

There is great accommodation for pilgrims in the camp site in Islares.
