Welcome to Costa da Morte
A COSTA DA MORTE
This is the name given to the long stretch of coast lying in the north-west of the Province of A Coruña and which runs between the Boroughs of A Laracha and Muros. It is divided into four areas: Bergantiños, Soneira, Fisterra and Muros-Carnota - and is made up of 17 municipal boroughs: A Laracha, Carballo, Coristanco, Malpica, Ponteceso, Cabana, Laxe, Zas, Vimianzo, Camariñas, Muxía, Cee, Corcubión, Fisterra, Dumbría, Carnota and Muros.
Some authors attribute the name Costa da Morte to the fact that this is the Finis Terrae - the Land's End where the sun sank into the dark and sinister sea; where sailors would on occasions simply be swallowed up and where nobody knew what lay on the other side. Others, however, claim that the name comes from the large number of shipwrecks that this breathtakingly wild coastline has witnessed over the centuries.
Whatever the case, this is unquestionably a coastline of matchless beauty, where time appears to have stood still and the air is drenched in legend and mystery. Here, the sights and smells of the sea, the steep cliffs, the wind whistling as it draws and shapes the rocks all combine to immerse us into this unforgettable landscape.
This is a place where magic and reality blend into one, and time and even space stand still. The wind whistles as it traces the forms of the rocks and boulders. The rain paints multiple shades of green onto a blue background, and ochre onto grey. The gales and storms create unique scenes and the stones wait patiently to tell their tale...
On the A Costa da Morte nature has a soul; this is a land of enchanted landscapes. It comes as no surprise to learn of the pantheism of the peoples that worshiped the sun, the rocks and nature long before the coming of Christianity. Indeed, traces of these rites and rituals are still to be found today in the popular pilgrimages and traditions of the inhabitants of this land.
