Picos, Potes & Soplao Cave
8 reviews
Travelers to northern Spain shouldn't miss a chance to experience the region's natural beauty. On this daylong tour from Santander, visitors are whisked to the Picos de Europa mountains, and Hermida Gorge. After a mountaintop photo opportunity, explore El Soplao Cave, and marvel at its natural rock formations. Along the way, visit a small village—Potes—and stop at a monastery housing the Lignum Crucis. Rejuvenate during the busy day with a traditional lunch, included in the tour price.

Favorite beach
My favorite beach in Santander. Quiet and away from the city. Definitely worth climbing dozens of stairs for.

Amazing walk
The views are stunning and the walk from the park and around the little peninsula which houses the golf course is worth taking.
