User reviews
"This place in Santander is one of the top spots for a day of relaxation. There's always plenty of room to lay out your towel and soak up the sun. And when you're in the mood for a cool beverage, you'll find a few nearby bars to choose from. It's the perfect place for a tranquil day by the sea."
Emmanuel Esteban
"The Monte Igueldo beach offers a stunning view, but you'll have to pay for the privilege. Taking a car to the beach costs a few euros, while the old-style funicular is free. If you're bringing kids, there's a small amusement park but it's also not free. All in all, it's an expensive day out, but the views are worth it."
