A Guarda s'enorgueillit de servir les fruits de mer les plus frais de la pêche du jour en Galice.

History

Le point de repère naturel le plus important d'A Guarda est le sommet de la montagne au sud, le Monte de Santa Trega. Si tu choisis de faire la randonnée jusqu'au sommet, tu seras récompensé par plus que de superbes vues. Sur le chemin de l'ascension se trouve un fort de colline celtique de l'âge du fer (castro) et un musée, et au sommet une petite chapelle.

The Road

Sortez de A Guarda en suivant la Rúa Puerto Rico, en passant devant l'albergue municipale. Les flèches sont mauvaises à cet endroit et le mieux est de guetter un panneau indiquant le chemin vers la Playa Area Granda, un virage à gauche de la Rúa Puerto Rico.

Suivez cette route jusqu'à la mer et tournez à droite. Devant toi se trouve une petite plage, suivie d'une courbe de la route, puis d'une plage un peu plus grande. Il s'agit de la Area Grande.

Perfect location and a gorgeous place. They even offered a taste of Port wine and cookies in the parlor. Wine bar is next door, restaurants are plentiful and live music was just outside the church. Super comfy room with private bath and the most amazing massaging shower head ever. Get the breakfast too - best one on the Camino and they can also do gluten free if you ask ahead.

If you have an early start on the Camino and are leaving AGUARDA there are not a lot of services until Oia there is a really nice store called Blanco on the main road that has pretty much everything you could need and Bar a few doors down has nice coffee.

FYI about A Guarda. If you’re coming off a long day and crossing over to Spain and arriving on a Sunday do shopping in Portugal because NOTHING is open in Spain. Including the hotel bars. No services at Hotel Eli Mar. better off sleeping staying in Camhina.

I’m at the Albergue at the moment and I enjoy every minute of it! The facilities are tidy and clean, the privacy you get with the curtains is great and the host-Fernando is the such kind and caring person!

Loved the privacy curtains . Clean . Upstairs were rooms and downstairs had a well equipped kitchen that I was able to cook a storm and do my laundry for 3 euro . The beach was 5 mins walk down .

We stayed at the Hotel Bruselas. The rooms were nice and clean. It has a bar inside and included breakfast. The owner who loves pilgrims met the with us at check in with cold glasses of fresh orange juice. She also gave us information concerning local attractions such as the Roman ruins.

My comments regarding St Benedict are referring to the Hotel Monumento Convento de San Benito. They served me coffee in the parlor at no cost, printed my luggage tag and knew the Mass times

I walked from Viana do Castelo and arrived tired. I was welcomed with kindness. The room had an amazing view and I saw Italians eating lobster in the restaurant below. It was Saturday night and I heard music in the distance.
Sunday morning it was the Feast of Saint Benedict and there was a relic to be venerated. Words are useless. I stayed the day to rest.

Hotel Bruselas was an excellent hotel with rooms for multiple people. 4 of us (2 couples) stayed in a quadruple room with a queen bed and two twin beds. Very clean and modern with plenty of room. The shower was hot and had a rain shower head. One of the nicest hotels along the trail. We paid 58 euros total. A continental breakfast was included. The owners were very kind and attentive. A full grocery store and multiple restaurants are within a couple minutes walking distance.

Beautiful town. Lovely restaurants and street artists at the harbour, where you watch the sun go down. The hotel Celta was a lovely place to stay. The whole experience of A Guarda was very positive.
