Santander is one of the most traditional coastal cities in northern Spain. As the capital of the autonomous community of Cantabria, it is a region born in the Picos de Europa mountain range that overlooks the Cantabrian Sea. Its mild climate is perfect for anyone looking to escape from the blaring heat during the summer months. Its famous beaches, such as Los Peligros or El Sardinero, are ideal places to enjoy with family or friends. There are also plenty of attractions in the vicinity of the city, so many people choose to rent a car to make sure they don't miss a thing during their stay.
