Vilanova è una graziosa cittadina portuale sul mare con numerosi bar e punti di ristoro, ma non molto altro oltre a guardare il mare.

Il cammino

LA BARCA. Tutto quello che c'è da sapere sulla barca per Pontecesures è impossibile da stampare qui. Gli orari variano a seconda della marea, del numero di passeggeri e dei capricci del capitano e dell'hospitalero dell'albergue. La questione è complicata dal fatto che lo stesso capitano timona due barche di dimensioni e capacità diverse e c'è un calcolo giornaliero per massimizzare il profitto. Purtroppo, questo significa che non puoi fare molto per pianificare il tutto con giorni di anticipo e che dovrai più o meno presentarti all'albergue e concordare le cose con l'hospitalero.

La strada. L'alternativa alla barca è una passeggiata prevalentemente su strada, lungo un sentiero che rispecchia approssimativamente la costa, ma che non offre un grande contatto con essa. Le frecce sono carenti in alcune zone e le strutture ricettive lungo questo tratto dovrebbero essere utilizzate solo durante i mesi estivi e su prenotazione.

I stayed here in Apr 2023, in a private room. Take care, the hot and cold taps were reversed!! Generally a good stay. There was a washing machine but only a small rack on which to hang laundry to dry. Main shopping area is a short walk, with several bars, cafe and restaurants close by. The hospitalera was great. Welcoming and helpful. Basic breakfast that I supplemented from the local supermarket, but several cafes were also open nearby in the morning.

The phone number listed everywhere for the public albergue appears to belong to someone else now. There was another number posted for “Fran” who I believe was the woman sitting at the check in desk. +34 633319459

I booked in advance online with Amare Turismo Náutico. Very efficient system. Cost €30 per person. They use two modern open speed boats which make for quite an exciting trip and get you to the destination ahead of the larger Pilgrim boat. Some stops on the way to point out things of interest. Commentary in Spanish and Spanglish. We did it in beautiful sunny weather. Might not be so much fun in the rain.

When you walk across the wooden bridge into Vilanova de Arousa, there is a boat office more or less straight across the road. FYI it closes in the afternoon and re-opens at 4pm. I got a ticket for the following morning- 23 euros cash- with either a 7 or 9.30am departure

Wished I went straight here instead of the municipal. We poked our head in and the owner invited us to look around. Beautifully renovated, small albergue. Looked like two rooms of 4 people and a camas matrimonial. €17 for a bunk. Awesome. Lovely hospitalero too.

October 2019, there operate 2 companies, A Mare and Pilgrims boat. went at 8, 9 and 11 o'clock. Both costs around 20€. We booked in advance, but in Vilanova is Office and you can buy the tickets evening before in the town.
I highly recommend to wear everything you have, its very windy and cold!!!!! on A Mare open boats.
Ride takes 1 hour 15 minutes. You will receive a stamp. No problem taking boat to get Camino ať the end.

It would not be wise to turn up without having booked the boat. As of 27 April 2019 it can sell out and there are brochures with phone numbers (also in the Brierly book).

Does the boat generally go in the morning? I understand it depends on the tide. But generally.?

23/3 2019 the boat only sails when 8 are going to join .
