Cantabria's Absolute Essentials

Cantabria features a diverse array of landmarks, from the UNESCO-listed Cave of Altamira’s prehistoric paintings to Gaudí’s modernist villa, El Capricho. The region's history is reflected in the Romanesque Collegiate Church of Santillana del Mar and the Gothic Santander Cathedral. Natural highlights include the geological formations of El Soplao Cave and the semi-captive wildlife at Cabárceno Natural Park. Coastal Santander offers the early 20th-century Palacio de la Magdalena and the sandy expanses of El Sardinero.
