The Portuguese Camino from Porto has two routes that go along the sea; the Coastal Route and the Litoral Way (Senda Litoral). Both routes are similar and often follow the same trail. The main difference is that the Litoral Way sticks to the coast as much as possible while the Coastal Route sometimes turns inland. The Coastal Route is 30,5% next to the sea, the Litoral Way is 80%. The Senda Litoral does not go along busy roads or industrial areas. Something to note is that the Litoral Way is not very well marked. The way is however easy to follow, just keep walking next to the ocean. We have GPX files that you can download and use to navigate on the Camino with your phone.
