Visit the beautiful Beaches where you can find excellnet conditions for swimming, diving, windsurfing and gambling in the casino nearby. Take a Walk through the Parks of Peninsula Matalena in the Paseo Pereda. Visit the Cathedral and the oceanic museum. More tips below. When I first came to Santander, I didn´t expect anything from this place, because I wanted to work in Andalucia. But after the first days I fell in love with this beautyful town and the nice people there.
Just stay open-minded, take a walk in the city centre,
get some tapas in the pubs and let it flow !
San Juan
by chemolari
Although now is considered a religious celebration, the celebration of San Juan has its roots in the pagan tradition which probably started when Spain was populated by celtic people. The original idea was to celebrate the beginning of summer but with time it degenerated to a religious celebration of Saint John.
It's celebrated the night of June 23rd and the tradition is to make a big fire at every town. In Santander the fire is done in the beacjhch of El Sardinero at night. After a couple of beers, people start jumping the fire and of course accidents happen ...

The park in peninsula of Magdalena

It is possible to take a bycicle or touristical train, butI advice you to enjoy hiking in the park of Magdalena. Children will have a great posibility to have fun in playgrounds and watching animals in a small zoo. Everything is for free.
My favourite building
by chrishc
Finally managed to get a reasonable picture of the post office building by creeping up behind it on the cathedral steps. Managed to get the wind at my back to stop rain getting on the camera.
I thought this was a lovely building which reminded me more of a villa than something you would expect from a post office.
