First day on my 2016 trip along the Camino del Faros

The walk starts the end of the harbour wall in Malpica next to a busy fishing port and heads back through town. From there it climbs up to a church dedicated to Santos Adrian who seems to have been a big deal in Galicia. After passing some lovely sandy beaches the route becomes less manicured and follows a narrow path close to the waters edge.
