Of course, Santiago de Compostela has one. And Saint-Jean-Pied-de-Port, where the French Camino begins, also has a pilgrim office where pilgrims can get help and information, their pilgrim passport, and their first stamp. But Porto?
Where is the pilgrim office in Porto?
The pilgrim office for the Camino Portugués is located very close to the cathedral (Sé) in Porto. It is pretty new, it opened it’s doors on the 11th of April 2026.
The office is located in the Rua da Pena Ventosa 38 in Porto. This is the location of the pilgrim office on Google Maps: Link
In the office you find support every day from 7-12 and 3-5pm. In the winter, the hours are more limited.
(For clarification: I am not the pilgrim office. I am a partner of the office and this blogposts informs about the office, but this website is about my Camino Planning service)
What does the pilgrim office in Porto offer?
In the office you can:
- buy your pilgrim passport (2€, cash only)
- buy a shell (2€, cash only)
- get your first stamp
- ask questions
- get information about services from trusted partners like me and my professional Camino planning
- get instructions on how to find the right arrows
- store your luggage during Camino
- send your luggage to Santiago
- drop your luggage to picked up by the luggage transfer company that you use
- donate your sticks if you fly back home from Porto
- pick up used sticks
On the pilgrim office’s website, you can also request many services.
You’ll find access to offers from partners who provide organizational or emotional support (like me), as well as luggage transport and shipping, bike rental, transfers, and local tickets.
You can also register there, so the pilgrim office knows where you are and when, allowing police and authorities to act more quickly in case of an emergency.
The website still has a few things under construction, but these will be resolved in the coming weeks.
