Excellent health resorts
Right on the beach
How do you like the beach? Secluded and out of the way? In town and lively? Right next to the hotel? At the end of a long walk?
Whatever your preferences, the beaches in Cantabria offer you all possibilities. And of all the locations, Santander is the queen of beaches, surrounding the entire city, making it a favourite destination for everybody.

Touching the sky
Nature, tradition, culture, spirituality… At 2,500 metres above sea level, the summits of the Picos de Europa (literally Peaks of Europe) stand high in the Cantabrian landscape, defining the Liébana region.
Spectacular scenery, the oldest monasteries in the Iberian peninsula and delicious cuisine make this a unique spot full of traditions and journeys to discover.

Underground
It is only possible to visit an authentic cave with paintings over 20,000 years old in a very few places.
In Cantabria, eight of the ten that make up the entire world heritage site can be visited "live and in person", to which the famous Altamira can be added, with its replica cave and National Museum of Prehistory. By contrast, the cave of El Soplao was decorated by nature rather than by human hand. Discover more about them

Tradition of sea and mountain
To say that people eat well in Cantabria is nothing new. The quality of its fishing, livestock and agricultural products is famous.
Based on tradition and firmly established in hundreds of restaurants, a group of young chefs are developing a "new cuisine" which is taking Cantabrian gastronomy to the next level. Six establishments which have been awarded Michelin Stars are at the forefront of this trend.
