Discover Muxía

Muxía, a beautiful coastal village nestled in the heart of Costa da Morte, is one of the most emotionally and spiritually charged final destinations for pilgrims extending their Camino beyond Santiago. Its identity is tied to the sea and Jacobean legend. The Sanctuary of Our Lady of the Boat, situated in an impressive enclave alongside rocks battered by the Atlantic, is the epicenter of devotion. Tradition holds that here Our Lady Mary arrived on a stone boat to give encouragement to Apostle Saint James. The "holy stones" surrounding the sanctuary, such as the Stone of Abalar and the Stone of Cadrís, are objects of ancestral rites. For the pilgrim, arriving in Muxía is an experience of deep connection with nature, legend, and faith. The village, with its fishing port and tranquil atmosphere, offers a haven of peace. Contemplating the sea from this sacred place is the perfect closure for a long journey, a moment of introspection and gratitude in one of Galicia's most magical corners.
