Santander is an elegant city that stretches along a wide bay overlooking the Cantabrian Sea. Its historic quarter has a group of noble buildings that rise in the middle of an incredible natural environment of sea and mountains. Its maritime and commercial tradition joins a century-old tourist vocation, which has in the famous beach of El Sardinero, in the promenade and in the peninsula of La Magdalena its main attractions.

Located on the northern route of the Camino de Santiago, Santillana del Mar is a beautiful medieval town that developed around the Collegiate Church of Santa María. Several defensive towers and Renaissance palaces make Santillana one of the most important historical sites in Cantabria.

San Vicente de la Barquera is one of the most picturesque fisherman's refuge in the Cantabrian coast, with its beaches, its old town and the exceptional snow-capped summits of the Picos de Europa. The old town of San Vicente was declared a Property of Cultural Interest in Cantabria in 1987, due to its interesting monumental complex, which includes the church of Santa María de los Ángeles, built between the thirteenth and sixteenth centuries, the castle and the remains of a wall. The bridges are another sign of this town's identity, such as the 28-eyed Maza, which was built by order of the Catholic Monarchs in the 16th century, or the Parral, which dates from the 18th century. It also has a magnificent compendium of beaches such as Fuentes, Primera de San Vicente, El Rosal, El Tostadero, Merón and Gerra, and a beautiful estuary full of boats and boats of vivid colors.
