Description
Santoña is internationally renowned for its anchovy canning industry. In fact, it is said that the Cantabrian anchovies are among the best in the world. Santoña is a municipality with a deep seafaring vocation. Its history and its people have always been linked to the sea and to famous sailors. Its most significant sign of identity is the Nature Reserve of the Marshes, whose exterior can be seen on a boat trip around the bay of Santoña.
What we are going to do?
After leaving Santander, we will head to the town of Santoña, where we will visit one of the main canneries in the area to discover some of the secrets of anchovy production. We will also take a pleasant boat trip across the bay of Santoña to the Faro del Caballo lighthouse. This is a regular one-hour boat trip. To get to know the area a little better, we will finish with a short minibus ride around the port and along the promenade to the Fort of San Martín, from where we can also enjoy the beautiful panoramic views of the bay.
