Santillana del Mar, picturesque town but ful of tourists. The quality of the restaurants was also much less then the restaurants in smaller, less crowded-with-tourists, places. Very good place for taking beautiful pictures!

Question about Santander
Hi! I am planning on studying abroad in Spain this summer, but can't decide if I want to do this in Santander or Malaga. I am looking for nice beaches, good beach weather, beautiful architecture, and neat botiques. Any ideas/ recommendations which I should go for?
RE: Question about Santander
Have not been to Santander (yet) but outside of being a little touristy, Malaga was a beautiful town - close to Granada, and very close to Gibraltar.
A colleague of mine studied in Seville and loved it!

RE: Question about Santander
Well, I've been to both cities, and for the reasons you want to go (besides the studying :-) I'd go to Malaga...

Go to Santander, you can go to Basque Country from there, :-)
RE: RE: Question about Santander
I wouldn't go to Malaga to study Spanish as there are so many tourists + many of the locals speak good English and will want to practise. You're much better off in a less touristy place like Santander. If you can give the beaches a miss, go to Granada. It is a beautiful city with good universities and schools + is only about 1 hour from the beach.
