Santander is a sophisticated harbor city that stretches along the northern edge of the stunning Bahía de Santander, offering a vibrant atmosphere with plenty to see and do. It's a place steeped in history, boasting broad streets, appealing architecture, and waterfront dining options.

Today, it maintains a belle-époque charm and is one of the city's most picturesque areas, particularly appreciated for its environmental quality and stunning beaches. The Paseo de Pereda, with its characteristic houses featuring enclosed balconies and its gardens, forms a lively boulevard that separates the coastal strip from Santander's historic quarter. The nearby Cathedral is one of the oldest structures in the capital, with its earliest parts dating back to the 13th century. Beneath the main chapel lies the crypt of El Cristo, a solemn vaulted room where various remnants from the Roman period were found. There are numerous reasons to appreciate this bustling harbor city, from its excellent urban beaches and numerous parks and gardens, to its culinary delights and rich history, making it the ideal gateway.
