Places in Spain - Santander

 

Santander is the best place to make base for exploring the regions of Cantabria and Asturias. From here you are never more than 3 1/2 hours away from any of the sights and places to visit. Santander is an ancient city with a modern waterfront, lined with cafes, bars and restaurants. Santander has three beaches but most visitors head for the nearby resort of El Sardinero, about 3km away. From here its worth visiting the lighthouse from which fantastic views can be had.

 

Santander has a Cathedral, a fortress-like construction, rebuilt after a fire in 1941. Museums include the Municiple Arts Museum on Calle Rubio and the Regional Prehistoria y Arqueologia Museum on Calle Casimiro. When shopping, look out for the local ceramic works.

 

 

Most people will know Santander for its port, from which passenger and car ferries sail to many destinations. See ferry details here
