One of four cool, verdant regions lining the north coast of Spain along the Atlantic Ocean‘s Bay of Biscay, Cantabria ‘s capital Santander as well as its rolling countryside, and its craggy coast are a delight for its culture, history, ecotourism, adventure, beaches (including surfing magnets!), and lovely towns, as this blog has covered extensively.

The topography of the region is what makes Cantabria such a special place. It’s criss-crossed by countless rivers that over the passage of time have transformed the landscape, creating valleys, gullies, canyons and waterfalls that can be enjoyed all year round.

Days get shorter, temperatures fall and the first rains arrive: it’s time to enjoy the pleasures of the new season: autumn
We don’t know why, but it’s at this time of the year when people feel more like doing rural tourism. Long walks with our couple or friends enjoying nature, which has just renewed its colors: reds, yellows and different tonalities of brown mix with the intense blue of the sky.

Fought intermittently between 29 and 19 BCE, the Cantabrian Wars (also referred to as the Cantabrian and Asturian Wars, including the next-door territory of Asturias) were a decade-long series of clashes between the Roman Empire which then ruled the Iberian Peninsula and the Cantabros and Astures, tribes of Celtic origin who’d inhabited this northerly portion of the peninsula since at least the 4th century BCE.

Although often ignored by birdwatchers rushing southwards in order to observe some of Spain’s more emblematic species, with a little effort, Cantabria can provide you with a very rewarding ornithological experience.

Gazing out over an endless horizon and the extraordinary landscapes of Infinite Cantabria is an experience in itself, don’t you think?

The appeal of this region is its variety — nothing is too far away, which means you can spend a morning at altitude and the afternoon on golden beaches or surrounded by lush countryside.

Cantabria’s coastline is over 220 km long and has more than 90 beaches open to the Cantabrian Sea. There are beaches for every taste: big, small, urban, wild, cosy, calm, family… some of them just 10 minutes from the airport!
