FAQs – Frequently asked questions
1. What is Peregrinos del Mar?
This is a gastronomic route along the Camino Francés, inspired by the Codex Calixtinus, created by INTERFISH ESPAÑA, the Organización de Productores Pesqueros del Puerto de Burela (OPP-7 Burela), the Organización de Productores de Pesca del Puerto y Ría de Marín (OPROMAR, OPP-8) and the Organización de Palangreros Guardeses (OR.PA.GU, OPP-49). Restaurants in eight towns offer special dishes featuring swordfish and blue-ringed octopus, two species that also make their own way across the oceans.
2. How do I get the stamps?
Visit a participating restaurant, try their special dish for the campaign and ask for a stamp in your booklet. The stamp is a physical one and is applied by the restaurant itself. Each stamp counts equally, regardless of where you get it.
3. How many stamps do I need to win a prize?
Every stamp wins a prize. The card has 8 empty spaces; if you collect all 8 stamps, the final prize is a night’s stay in a hotel in Santiago de Compostela.
4. Where and how do I collect my prize?
Prizes can be collected from a stand set up in Santiago de Compostela, at the end of the Camino, by presenting your stamped card. You can fill in the form on this page with your details and a photo of your campaign credential so that we can have your prize ready for you. Stand location and opening hours:
San Martin Pinario Guesthouse – Cloister Area
Opening hours: 1.00 pm to 5.00 pm (Monday to Sunday).

5. What sort of fish will I be trying?

6. Do I need to register or pay anything to take part?
You don’t need to register to complete the trail or to get your stamp: simply visit the restaurants and ask for it. Only at the end, if you’d like us to arrange your prize, can you fill in your details on the form. Tracking your progress on this website is optional and is only intended to help you keep track of your own progress.
