Services

Navia sits at the mouth of the Río Navia and serves as the commercial center for this stretch of coast. The old town — what remains of it — is compact enough for a quick loop. The harbor is functional rather than picturesque, but the riverside park is pleasant.

All services available. Beyond Navia, the camino mostly avoids the N-634 on country back roads until it crosses the A-8, after which the road becomes harder to escape.

Fiesta:

Nuestra Señora de La Barca is celebrated from the 14th to the 17th of August.

The Camino:

Beyond Jarrio the camino mostly avoids the N-634 and instead keeps to the countryside back roads. Once it crosses over the A-8 however that pattern changes, and it follows the main road into Cartavio. From Cartavio to La Caridad it then struggles to stay off the road, leaving for brief stretches but alway returning to it. In La Caridad, after passing the municipal albergue, it returns to the old N-634 through town.

Hotel Casona Naviega

Hotel Casona Naviega is spectacular! The room was really comfortable with nice touches and the breakfast was amazing and generous. Many delicious and hearty fruit, meat, cheese, bread, options. The staff were very kind and extremely helpful and went out of their way to make our stay - with bikes - easy and comfortable. There is a lovely outdoor courtyard as well. Highly recommend!!

Hotel Capellan was spectacular

This beautiful family run hotel is a breath of fresh air along the way. Located on the Camino overlooking Navia, reasonably priced, excellent food and the owners go above and beyond to make sure you are comfortable and your every need is met. We came in soaking wet and were handed dry towels, warm drinks and well fed. You will not be sorry you rested a night in the Hotel Capellan!

Buen Camino!

Food in Navia

Cafeteria Martinez has an English menu, had large servings of food and seems to be willing to prepare great tasting meals at any time throughout the day which is a bonus for us hungry pilgrims not aligning with the typical meal schedule.

Pension Cantabrico

Ok bed. Ok room. But expect to be woken up very early by the maids dragging the beds, music from their radio and slamming doors… not worth €50 for the night. View from the bed is the toilet.

Signage out of Navia

The signage leaving Navia is sparse (and may have something parked in front of it). When you get to the top of Calle la Peña, bear left and keep going straight until you reach a T junction (there are a couple of arrows before this but also several unmarked turns). Go right at the T past the farm and then bear left on the Y junction by the recycling bins. There’s a clear marker just beyond them. blueK

Bus station restaurant

If you arrive on a Sunday (as we did) and everything is shut, and you gotta eat, then head to the bus station as it's got a really nice restaurant attached to it

Albergue La Roque

It’s not just an okay place!!! I just dont know if the last comment is true… the hospitalero is very friendly and gives you good and very helpful tips for upcoming stages. The albergue is one of the cleanest I have ever been to the camino!!! I really can recommend it!!
