    Beyond Santiago: Finisterre and Muxía

    For centuries, pilgrims have continued west from Santiago to the ocean at Cape Finisterre — once thought to be the end of the known world.

    Cape Finisterre

    Fisterra's lighthouse stands above the Costa da Morte. The 0.00 km marker stone is a popular photo stop, and sunsets here are legendary.

    Muxía

    The Sanctuary of A Virxe da Barca sits on the rocks at Muxía, linked to a legend of the Virgin Mary arriving by stone boat to encourage St. James.
