Santander is located between Asturias and the Basque Country and is the capital of the autonomous community of Cantabria. Santander participated in the battle for the conquest of Seville and grouped with other towns to compete in wool and flour trade with England. Its continuous expansion in maritime activity allowed it to open trade with America around the 18th century. Following the years till the 21st century, Santander has hosted the most important sport and event in the world of training sailing with the ‘Cutty Sark Tall Ships Race Regatta”. In the late Middle Ages, Santander transformed from a prominent port to a city. It currently has an international airport and a good rail network, allowing easy access to the neighboring regions of Cantabria. The temperature never gets particularly high since most of Cantabria is under the influence of the Atlantic Ocean, which makes the area an attractive summer destination. The city center of Santander fronts several sandy beaches with calm waters. All of them have excellent facilities, restaurants, and bars nearby. Before you cruise the lovely coastline of Cantabria, you can stroll through the city of Santander, which is home to several monuments and restaurants that suit all tastes and pockets. You can begin at Paseo Pereda gardens, where you will see the famous Stone Crane along the waterside, which can lift up to 30 tonnes. Along the waterfront, you will also see the Club Maritimo and how fishermen base the region’s cuisine around game and seafood. The Mercado de la Esperanza is a municipal food market with a cheerful atmosphere where locals sell some of the best fresh fish in Spain.

Santander may have plenty of parkland space, but renting a boat will allow you to drift away from the urban lifestyle and explore the hidden beauties of the Cantabria coastline.

By renting a catamaran, motor yacht, or sailboat of your choice, you can cruise around the Bay of Santander. The bay features numerous islands and beaches. You will pass through Puertochico which was formerly an area of fishermen and today offers active entertainment. Some other attractions you can stop by are the Royal Maritime Club close to Vaqueros. The Magdalena peninsula is one of the most beautiful areas of Santander and features the majestic Royal Palace, which has outstanding views of the city. Not too far, you cannot possibly pass up the chance of a swim in the Sardinero Beaches. From Playa del Camello to Los Bikinis and Magdalena at the tip of the peninsula, you can go for a refreshing dip from your yacht. The whole coastline of El Sardinero has beautiful mansions and elegant houses that line up along the seafront.

Your sailing holidays in Spain can be customized for you to reach the south of France, or to the west towards Asturias and Galicia. If you cruise towards the south of France you will be able to make a stop at Bilbao, San Sebastián to Bordeaux, and La Rochelle in France. On your way to Bilbao, you can choose to spend a night in Laredo, a beautiful town with one of the most beautiful beach resorts in northern Spain. You can continue your journey, mooring your boat in the port of Bermeo in Bilbao. For a longer cruise, you may enjoy a 7-day yacht charter around the Bay of Biscay where you will come across Royan, Rochefort, La Rochelle, Saint-Nazaire, and the islands of Ré and Oléron. If you choose to sail towards Galicia, you can make stops at Suances, Comillas, and the Oyambre Natural Park which are ideal for watersports and surfing. You can also explore Ribadeo or Vivero on your way to Galicia. Finally, Santander offers guests the opportunity to enjoy a memorable experience by boat, since it is centered in the goldmine of the Cantabria coast.
