I was ten years ago. The venue has really improved its content. A very nice museum very well conservated and organized too! Very, very good! Wednesdays are for free. Take your tickets on the web, so easy & fast.

Jurrasic museum before you even enter the museum, you are greeted with spectacular sea views, gorgeous nature and an abundance of open area playground and grass to explore the absolutely giant dinosaur replicas around the garden. Even without visiting the museum, this aspect of the museum, which is completely free by the way , is worth a visit just on its own. There are lots of photo opportunities and activities to explore, perfect for families with small kids. before you even arrive, I want you to take a quick satellite image look at the museum to understand what it is molded after, absolutely genius. The structure itself, the huge domes are truly spectacular to behold. Getting inside the museum is no disappointment, the towering assembled dinosaur bones towering over you underneath the beautiful interior architecture of the domes. Again, even if you wouldn’t be interested in dinosaurs, the place itself and the vibe is utterly impressive. I do wish the path leading between the different timelines will be more clearly marked out but the fluidity, the ramps leading up to the second floor and back down again was a very pleasant way to explore in a natural and organic way. The objects of the exhibition were very well lit but I found that the general lighting was a bit too modest and too dark but at the same time the tranquility and peace was borderline on a yoga session level. Very relaxing... Almost too relaxing for a tired parent. 😅 all in all it was a fantastic experience and I have absolutely no major things to criticize, even the parking is plentiful. Definitely come and visit this fantastic educational place.

Our little 2-year-old boy, Alexander, is completely obsessed with dinosaurs, so visiting the Museo Jurásico de Asturias was everything and more for him (and for us too!). He was in awe from the moment we arrived — there are so many dinosaurs to see, learn about, and even ride on. The displays are fantastic, with plenty to keep both kids and adults engaged, and the outdoor areas are beautiful to explore. We loved seeing his face light up at every “roar” and “wow.” A must-visit if you’re in Asturias, especially with little dinosaur fans! I would just say to all family’s that I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND, eating food before you get there as this was the only thing that was not to a high level. I would go as far and say this was some of the worst burger, chips and croquettes that I’ve ever tasted. Other than that, the park is INCREDIBLE ✨ Also an electric car charge point too 🙌

This is the perfect museum if you have children or are interested in dinosaurs. The museum is bigger than it looks, has some impressive displays, a room full of stuff children can touch, and movies about how the fossils were found. But the main draw is the park around the museum with live size statues of the dinosaurs.

Not a big place but it had a good collection.

Lovely Jurassic Museum, the first one I've been. Interesting that all that region was full of dinosaurs. The kids to loved it!!

Really enjoyed it here. For small children just going to the gardens to see the dinosaurs (free) might be a better option than the museum. The museum is full of information and exhibitions and really worth the entrance fee.

Not totally clear but did despite some clouds see a few mountains. Walked up the trail on the nearby hill, good views and wild Narcissus in flower!

The view from the top is absolutely breathtaking ! On one side you have the sea and on the other you have the mountains. It is really spectacular if you are one to enjoy nature's fine work of art! The road to get up there is not bad, a little tight, but manageable. Unfortunately, when you do arrive at the spot, you should be aware that there is no place where you could get any drinks or snacks, so you should go prepared!

Spectacular viewpoint with views of the surrounding mountains and coastline, definitely worth the trip! Warning: view is weather dependent.

Stunning spot to see the entire Picos de Europa and the sea on the other side. Make sure you go in a sunny day and drive carefully up the curved road.

One of the prettiest places I’ve been including Yosemite, Zermatt, and in the Everest region.

The drive up and down the Mirador is really beautiful. The view from the place itself is nice the the view from ita surroundings is mich better so I recommended walking around a bit (there is a very nice viewing point in the opposite direction of the Mirador.

One of the best views of the mountains I saw in Asturias. A must go for anyone who loves nature and scenic views. Even on a cloudy day the view is absolutely spectacular. There is plenty of parking in a car park and even on the road and a lot of area to walk around and get a new view.

Impressive natural phenomenon where the force of the sea pushes water up through blowholes in the rocks to create water spouts at the top of the cliffs. To witness this, you'll have to come at high tide.

Amazing experience! Maybe better with a high tide and high waves. The sound is gorgeous and the drops of water erupting with the rainbow made it unforgettable!!! Be careful with the mobiles and hats, the wind blows hard!

First time visiting here, found a free parking lot about 1.1km away, and walked the rest of the way which took us about 16 minutes. We didn't see any big splashes but the scenery was amazing, and had the perfect weather to take nice pictures. A beautiful place.

We were lucky to experience the bufones at high tide with a big swell and lovely sunny weather so saw them at their best with many spouting water and air. Quick train ride from Ribadesella to Belmonte then walk out to coast and bufones area. From there back along the coastpath to Ribadesella- stunning coastal scenery all the way and a gently undulating 15km total. Nice cool beer in the first bar we came to in Ribadesella… 😀

We visited Bufones de Pría on September 29, arriving around 7:30 pm and staying until nearly 9 pm in hopes of seeing the famous blowholes in action. Unfortunately, we didn’t see a single one during that time. On top of that, parking was a real downside. They forbid cars from going nearby, so we had to walk more than 3 km back and forth , even though it wasn’t peak season and the area wasn’t crowded at all. That said, the cliffs are impressive, and the evening sky with dramatic clouds was gorgeous!

We have visited during mid of October. Still the weather was nice but it could get rainy on some days. Surprisingly it was a bit crowded but not overly so. You will be definitely able to find parking. I recommend to do so right before entering the village. Signs will be shown clearly. Especially if you have a camper van, drop it off there and walk through the village. It will take you around 15 minutes to get there. You will cross a beautiful beach and you shall see horses, sheep and perhaps some cows on the way as well 😊

Great but go with high tide

We stopped by out of curiosity having seen the place on Tik Tok 😅 At 17.00 on a cloudy Sunday afternoon it was quite busy there, so I can only imagine what it would be like at midday on a sunny day. I think it would be fun but during the summer months there's always going to be a lot of people and while it's impressive, I myself would prefer to go to one of Asturias other fine beaches. Best option for parking without fear of receiving a fine is to drive right down the bottom of the track and pay the 3€. Between the parking area (where incidentally you can walk to another beach from) and Gulpiyuri there's a chiringuito where you can purchase refreshments.

Known as the shortest beach in the world, this is a nice spot to stop by. It can get crowded and it is indeed a small beach but it is very unique due to the fact that there is a channel in the cliff that allows seawater to reach this beach which is basically a sinkhole. Behind the beach you will have some nice views of the cliffs and there is free parking available there.

Wonderful and beautiful beach. Small, compared to the other nearby beaches. Although, i recomend going to the beach in trainers / shoes, not flipflops, since the terrain is very rocky and slippery. Plus, to get to the actual "shore" you need to go up and down a feet wide crack.

Beautiful interesting beach and views. You might have to pay €2.50 to park your car

I think we just chose a bad moment to go, because we were not even able to put our feet in the water. It's cute and small, but many people are coming, and I am sure it's a better idea to visit in the evening or early morning. Parking cost 2,5€.

Unusual to see an onshore beach, but that's all it has... Then it's quite small and tends to be crowded. With low tide there's barely no water so go with high tide.

Super cute secluded beach.. Bit of a, walk from car park.! Becareful of where you park, observe the signs.as the farmer will call the police to give parking tickets. Drive down that sandy rocky road for a few minutes. Better place to park and shorter walk.

Beautiful nudist beach but with difficult access. Can’t park close. Need to park at the parking lot and walk downhill 1km to access the beach. Views on the way are mesmerizing. The beach has a “chiringuito” that serves beer and warm food.

Wonderful beach and surroundings. Not crowded with breathtaking landscape. You can walk all along the coast. Our favorite place during our stay in the north of Spain.

Beautiful beach and good for surf. There’s a sign that prohibits motorhomes by the entrance to the little town you need to pass to get to the big parkjng lot. Understandable as you need to be a good driver to manouver the narrow streets. An easy walk down to the beach, not so easy to get back up - but many families with small children have managed it before you! It’s a naturalist beach. No toilets.

Torimbia Beach is a hidden gem! It’s a nudist beach. The atmosphere is calm and family-friendly, with turquoise water and a beach sheltered from the wind. There’s a small beach bar with delicious seafood, though there’s a bit of a wait. The hike to and from the parking lot is about 15 minutes down and 20 minutes up, adding to its charm. Highly recommend it!

This beach offers a stunning view, thin white sand, crystal clear waters, fun waves to jump and the safety of lifeguard staff. Parking is somewhat tricky and there is a 2 km walk to get to the beach, which is quite steep and rocky at times, so not suitable for older people or wheelchair users.

It's a beautiful remote beach, very secluded and picturesque. When driving there, go all the way up the hill, the parking is at the end of the road. And then it's a nice hike down to the beach

Absolutely stunning beach and views… the waves, caves and a tiny island around the beach Points to note: 1) accessible by private transport only. From the Parking point it’s a private 10-15 minutes descent to the beach which is partly VERY steep 2) there is only one restaurant by the beach which has good options of food and beverages 3) it’s a “clothes optional” beach. So most of the people you see around are FULLY naked. So that’s something to be considered if visiting with kids or your comfort Overall if you do not mind the descent and climb, it’s an amazing beach and all the effort is worth it

Stunning scenery and well marked trails. Getting to it is a bit of a faff. We drove to Covadonga (v cool place) then if you hadn’t pre-ordered bus tickets you have either a taxi or shuttle. Shuttle was 12 euro return and you share with others. Once you are off an going it’s pretty efficient. The drive up to the lakes is epic, and I can see why they don’t want lots of cars. It’s busy at the meeting point & round the lakes but once you get out hiking in the trail it thins out v quickly. Trails are well marked and scenery is stunning. Allow at least a half day.

Incredible views everywhere, truly spectacular National Park. There are many good trails, was very easy to follow and well maintained. Can highly recommend the hike to Vega de Ario refuge even over the lagos one.

Beautiful place. Unfortunately it was very very foggy and we couldn’t see the lakes :( but the place was full of beautiful cows. Would love to came again when the weather is better.

For any visiting birder the Picos de Europa is the best place in Spain to see Wallcreeper, Snowfinch, Alpine Accentor and Alpine Chough in the summer, plus other birds such as Rock Thrush, Water Pipit and maybe even a Lammergeier. The Fuente Dé cable car takes you up to over 1,900 m in altitude in just a 4-minute ride. It gets busy in the summer, so don't leave it until too late in the morning, but once you get away from the entrance the crowds thin out and you are left with amazing scenery and a good chance at some of the best high-altitude birds that you get in Spain. It's great for hiking, and in fact if you can't or don't hike it's a bit of a shame, because you'll be missing out on the best of the park. Down in the green valleys there are hay meadows, small villages and forested slopes, good for Black Woodpecker and Middle Spotted Woodpecker, and high passes with Citril Finches in the vicinity.

Incredibly beautiful, rugged park. Views and hiking are epic

If you like hiking so you are going to love picos de europa

The hike was beautiful and well maintained. Easy to reach the trail head. Lots of dogs having a great time there too.

one of the most beautiful beaches I‘ve been to! Beautiful & colorful rock formations.

One of the nicest beaches I’ve ever been to! Playa de la Franca is a beautiful sandy beach on the Calabrian Sea (northern Spain, Asturias), tucked between dramatic cliffs and green hills. It’s clean, well-kept, and has a laid-back local vibe. Even though I’m usually not a big fan of swimming in the sea, here I really enjoyed it – calm, clear water and a gentle slope make it great for swimming. At low tide, you can even walk through natural rock tunnels to a hidden beach called Playa del Oso – a fun little adventure. Around the beach you’ll find a few restaurants; we had amazing fresh fish at Emilio’s. Definitely worth booking ahead in high season – it fills up fast around lunchtime. There’s a shower to rinse off and plenty of parking nearby (around €3 a bit further, or €5 right at the beach). All in all, a real gem – scenic, family-friendly, and full of character.

Wonderful- a beautiful place, the water is shallow, very family-friendly. Can get busy but also kind of calm and cozy at the sane time.

The small island you can see to your left, It looks like the  cloistered island on the planet Ahch-To from Star Wars, where Luke hides in In The Force Awakens! Sure In daylight!!(I'm a Star Wars fan!)

A very interesting beach, quite an experience. A long sand beach, especially when the water regresses… Beautiful scenery. The water is cold but very refreshing.

We were very surprised to find such a gem. A beautiful spot with everything you can wish for (if you are me ☺️). There's a river that flows into the sea. There are trees, there are rocks and rock pillars but also a sand beach. If you don't want to sit in the sand you can have a drink at a terrace. There's only one thing that was not amazing: parking space. There aren't to many parking spots, so baer that in mind.

Stunning sand beach large and deep with all equipment around to park, eat, shower… beach is clean The closer you park from the beach, the more expensive the parking lot from free to 4 euros. Best beach I have seen in Asturias, Galicia and pais vasco… well it certainly the most developed around

(Translated by Google) I visited a few years ago and it was great. Today we returned and we were disappointed, the man who is there doesn't know anything about the place, the first time the girl explained everything to us. The entrance costs 1 euro, it is not money, but it takes no time to see it. That man does not know how to attract people to the church or the area. (Original) Lo visité hace unos años y fue genial. Hoy hemos vuelto u ha sudo una decepción el señor que está allí no sabe nada del sitio, la primera vez u a chica nos lo explico todo. La entrada cuesta 1 euro, no es dinero, pero tardas nada en verla. Ese señor no sabe atraer gente ni a la iglesia ni a la zona

(Translated by Google) Very picturesque spectacular belfry, the clock was 2 hours late 🤣 (they set it up in winter and there was no time change😜) (Original) Muy pintoresca espadaña espectacular, el reloj retrasado 2 horas 🤣( lo montaron en invierno y no había cambio horario😜 )

(Translated by Google) July 2025. Beautiful Romanesque church. The pity was that it was late and it was closed. But the outside is worth the visit. It's in a meadow with the cemetery behind it. A picture-postcard sight. (Original) Julio 2025. Preciosa iglesia románica. La pena fue que era tarde y estaba cerrada. Pero la visita exterior ya merece la pena. Está en un prado con el cementerio por la parte posterior. Una estampa de postal.

(Translated by Google) Beautiful 12th-century Romanesque collegiate church with a Latin cross, triple apse, portico, and imposing bell gable for four bells. Inside, the altar table stands out with its seven columns and plant motifs. It stands in a meadow, creating a picture-perfect setting. (Original) Preciosa colegiata románica del S. XII de cruz latina, triple cabecera, pórtico e imponente espadaña para 4 campanas. En el interior sobresale la mesa del altar con sus siete columnas y motivos vegetales. Está en un prado constituyendo una postal de gran belleza

(Translated by Google) A small and charming Romanesque church, especially when the sun rises and illuminates it, although we weren't able to go in. It's worth the trip there, and then climbing to the Piedras Luengas viewpoint to see the Picos de Europa. (Original) Pequeña y coqueta iglesia románica, especialmente cuando sale el sol y la ilumina, aunque no pudimos entrar. Merece la pena llegar hasta allí, y luego subir al mirador de piedrasluengas para ver los picos de Europa.

(Translated by Google) A little gem of the Romanesque not very well known 😍😍😍 with legend included about a Count, Doña Elvira and her deaf-mute maid...... 🚶🚶🚶🏃🏃🏃🤸🤸🤸 Well not so much, which later turned out to be talking about, scare I imagine!!!! hahahahaha 😂😂😂 It seems that the count wanted to throw them off the cliff.... 🌺🌺🌺🕍🔔💒⛪ In 🚗🚗 to the same door 🚗🚗...

(Translated by Google) A beautiful church representative of Palencia's mountain Romanesque architecture. A visit inside is a must. (Original) Preciosa iglesia representativa del románico montañes palentino. Visitarla por dentro es oblegatorio

Beaches are great, town a little disappointing. Seafood restaurants near the Port end of town looked interesting. Free parking near the Port.

Great walk from the town center to the castle. Awesome views and the cathedral is up there too. You can see the whole robes and the town from there. Peaceful and beautiful. A must see if you are in San Vicente de la Barquera. There sometimes a few expositions of local artist in the near museum. Usually free entrance.

Worth 2€. A couple of interesting things inside, but to be honest the best is certainly the view. Not suitable for people struggling with stairs ;)

It probably helps that the weather was marvellous. But hey that it is how it is in early July.

Beautiful castle with amazing views around the bay of San Vicente de la barquera. Inside you can see a hugh canon. When you go upstairs you can walk around and enjoy the views and take nice pictures. At the end there is a church you can visit too. Inside the central hall there is a 3D maquete of the castle and town.

best thing you can get for 2 euros. great exhibition and views. Real cool mini model with amazing detail

Following a dog bite I went for treatment and was attended to almost immediately by a very professional nurse. Thanks to her I suffered no ill effect.

Having cycled into the town to visit the house we were disappointed to have to buy tickets for entry later in the day! Eventually once our time arrived the walk around this house was very rewarding and interesting. An app enabled access to a description of each room but I think given the popularity and diversity of people visiting the app could have been more interactive!

El Capricho de Gaudí was one of the most enchanting architectural experiences I’ve ever had. The moment you arrive, you can feel Gaudí’s creativity everywhere—bright colors, whimsical details, and a design that feels both playful and brilliant at the same time. Walking through the house and gardens feels like stepping into a dream. Every corner has something unique to admire, whether it’s the ceramic sunflowers, the curved lines, or the way the light fills each room. You can really sense Gaudí’s genius and imagination in every detail. The staff were friendly and knowledgeable, making the visit even more enjoyable by sharing insights and fun facts that brought the space to life. It’s the kind of place that’s beautiful not just to see, but to explore and really experience. Overall, El Capricho de Gaudí is a must-visit for architecture lovers, art enthusiasts, or anyone who appreciates something truly unique. It’s charming, inspiring, and absolutely unforgettable.

I am not familiar with the area so this was a huge surprise. The queue to get in was fine for a July weekday. But you could also great views from the park side. The minaret was fabulous and took on a Lego effect.

Great to see one of Gaudi’s early works up close. We visited out of season at end of September so no queues and not too busy. I imagine that in high season it would be a bit more cramped and worthwhile planning a guided tour to make things easier.

If you are interested in architecture you will enjoy this place. If you are interested in Gaudí, you will enjoy this place. If you are not interested in architecture or Gaudí, you will still probably have a great time here. The free online interactive audioguide, accessible from your phone, makes the experience very instructive and worth the price of admission on top of the obvious beauty of the place. They have access slots, so be ready to wait or go for a walk in the village while you wait for yours.

Beautiful house designed by Gaudi. Very interesting architecture and details all over. It's actually quite amazing they were able to restore it that well, based on what it looked like 30 years ago

This a place to visit as it is the first building built by Gaudí. Dogs are allowed in the garden so you can take turns to see the building. There is a small cafe and a souvenir shop. There are stairs so it's not accessible for wheelchair.

A great place to visit with kids, we came during Easter holidays and booked tickets in advance. The castle is a masterpiece of a handcraft restauration, the guide at the reception explains the history of the castle, how it came to ruine and was restored. It's a pity we won't see one of the medieval festivals they organise. A hidden jewel of unknown Cantabria, highly recommended for those who like going sideways of the main tourist routes.

Beautiful area for a light hike with a dog, and then check the castle. Easy to park, very accomodating staff Nd beautiful castle with a more interesting history than it gives away. Love belt craftsmanship in restoration. If you are I. The area, it's a visit worth your time!

Nice castle but its like nothing to see inside

Beautiful reconstructed castle in nice and peaceful nature.

Very beautiful and skillfully renovated castle. Don’t miss it if you are around. For kids there is a quest to find the dragon‘s nest! Will they find it? Thanks for the kind reception!

The castle is quite small and can be visited in half an hour. Although the inside has very little to see in terms of how it was used in the past, you have to go just to see the carpentry. It's a work of art. I don't know how often they change the exhibitions, or if the paintings are there permanently, but I thought they were interesting and fitted in well. The lady who works there was really nice. If you're in the area go!

Small castle, nicely restored. Beautiful surroundings.

Wonderful place, imagine living here? This person is blessed...🌿😌

Very beautiful and peaceful area with a little sanctuary and one of the most important rivers in Spain 🇪🇸 starts 😀

Nice drive in for a picnic, trip to have a good walk. Natural landscape with lot of plantations, river, natural ecosystem with wide range of habitat for various plants animals birds . Well shaded. Natural site has been designed with accessibility with steps, visitors facility like seating, furnishings, parking

Not quite what I expected, two dead ducks floating in the algae loads of dead fall in the water and generally unkempt, could do with a good clean up

Wonderful place. Source of river Elva. There is restaurant close and big parking...

A nice little stroll, good to see although it's rather busy with tourists (we added to that!). Not a whole lot going on, but quite a special place in many ways. Worth stopping to see the cold crystal blue waters that come out from underground.

Nice picnic area to have a break while you travel around and which you do not expect to become the most powerful river in Spain with such a small mountain water leak. Do not miss the swamp past Reinosa to realize the great amount of water actually coming from here.

It would not be my first choice for a museum, however definitely would recommend it, as its a sad reality of not only our history, but our present and the development of freedom of humans and women. It's not for the light hearted as the truth about the torture is horrible. Definitely would not recommend younger children (under the age of 16). Also I rate it a 4 because I think the price is a bit high for what it is.

Really interesting museum if you can handle the topic. It is small and has two floors with replicas and everywhere detailed explanation in English, Spanish and French. Entry is 5 euro which is worth it in my opinion but you can only pay in cash. There is also a toilet. This museum is together with the beautiful old town of Santillana del Mar a good reason to come here

There have always been, are and will be mentally ill people who derive pleasure from the suffering of others. They invent tools for torture and act as executioners. Anyone can fall into their hands. And it is scary to imagine what exhibits will be after our days....

For 5 euros, this is a great value. It's got good multi-lingual descriptions of the different apparatus, and also of the history (why and where) the devices were used. The full experience is about an hour; very interesting and somewhat disturbing of course. Not for the faint of heart!

Quite impressive! It shows this dark time how human were brutally treated. If you don’t have so strong nerves like me, the visit cannot be finished😬. Happy that we are living in the modern times and this kind of thing hopefully is gone.

We came out of this small museum with a grim feeling, but I think that’s a good thing for a museum about torture. Worth a visit if you’re in Santillana del Mar, even if the collection is a bit small. However, every torture device was well explained in three different languages (French, English and Spanish off course).

Cash only. But reasonable prices. The museum effectively accomplishes its purpose - almost too effectively. Eat lunch first or you might lose your appetite. Not for the squeamish - though my younger kids were ok.

Beautiful old village, I love places like this very much. However, a lot of people know about this place, so the number of tourists overrides this beautiful atmosphere..... Tried to enjoy it no matter what, we came on a Sunday. Very many hotels and stores for such a small place, which explains the number of visitors. I recommend a visit, but I think it would be better on a weekday and early.

Historical place- it’s very relaxing walking around the area

Unfortunately not opened the day we visited but still looked astonishing from the outside.

Well worth the very reasonable entrance price. It has many unusual features. Glad we hung around for it to reopen

Excellent example of 11th century church building, though cloisters were added centuries later.

Not free for pilgrims. No stamp (sello). Well worth the 3 euros. Beautiful.

Beautiful romanic church. I'm not sure it's 100% worth it to pay admission to see the inside, but it can be admired for free from the outside.

(Translated by Google) We quite enjoyed the route. It's recommended to park in the second parking lot to save yourself a 2-km walk on the dirt path. (Original) Nos gustó bastante la ruta . Se aconseja aparcar en el segundo parking y así ahorrarse 2 km andando de sendero de tierra

(Translated by Google) April 2023 - The center is very well decorated, tastefully, beautiful and instructive, it's a shame about the guides, they don't explain, they don't teach, they don't show any interest in the visitor and to top it all off they invite you to see it yourself. They don't have a single screen on, but yes, the question: where do they come from? to make the statistics, don't miss it. TWO NEETs in every rule, a shame! (Original) Abril 2023 - El centro está muy bien ambientado, con gusto, bonito e instructivo, lástima los guias, no explican, no enseñan, no muestran ningún interés por el visitante y para colmo te invitan a que mejor lo veas tú solo. No tienen encendida una sola de las pantallas, pero eso sí, la pregunta: ¿de donde vienen? para hacer la estadística, que no falte. ¡DOS NINIS en toda regla, una lástima!

(Translated by Google) We stopped by the visitor center, and the two guides accompanied us throughout the tour, telling us a multitude of details about the flora and fauna of Mount Hijedo, as well as the history of the medieval building itself—quite a surprise. We missed the fact that the screens at the end weren't lit, but we didn't ask about them either. Next time we'll try the escape room—it's promising! (Original) Pasamos por el centro de interpretación y las dos guías nos acompañaron en todo el recorrido contándonos multitud de detalles sobre la flora y fauna del Monte Hijedo, así como la historia del edificio medieval en sí, toda una sorpresa. Echamos de menos que las pantallas del final no estuvieran encendidas, pero tampoco preguntamos sobre ellas. La próxima vez haremos el escape room ¡que promete!

(Translated by Google) Good service, the only negative is that we have not been able to book a guided tour on the weekend because they have been eliminated. a shame (Original) Buena atención lo único negativo es que no hemos podido reservar una visita guiada el fin de semana pues las han eliminado. Una lastima

(Translated by Google) Complicated access due to the narrowness of the path, very interesting, interesting area well explained by the people who are there, it also has an escape room (Original) Acceso complicado por la estrechez del camino, muy interesante, recinto interesante bien explicado por las personas que allí están, además tiene un escape Room

(Translated by Google) We weren't able to complete the entire Riopanero challenge because we got a bit lost along the way, but Alex gave us fantastic service, and we had a great time. (Original) No hemos podido realizar el reto Riopanero completo porque nos hemos perdido un poco por el camino, pero Álex nos ha atendido fantásticamente, y el rato que hemos pasado ha sido muy bueno.

(Translated by Google) A short tour where they explain the flora and fauna of the area. They also provide guidance on the local hiking trails. (Original) Pequeño recorrido en el que te explican la flora y fauna que hay en la zona. También te orientan sobre las rutas de senderismo de la zona.

When you think on beaches in Spain you probably realize the south or eastern Spain, but this is actually one of the best beaches of northern Spain, and of course, on my opinion, the best of the town indeed the city, unfortunately I was there in the winter time so I couldn’t swim, but believe there were people swimming This area is full of life whole year long they have a great waterfront walk and nice place to take pictures, clean and beautiful landscapes My wife and I made Santa tree one of our stops during our northern Spain road trip and we couldn’t be more satisfied

Low tide in the morning, high tide in the afternoon. All the beaches are connected so you can make a good stroll back and forth.

A glorious beach with a lot of amenities and supermarkets close by. It has a diverse crowd without too much music or overly quiet. The surrounding area is gorgeous and there are sunbeds if you feel you need one. The sand is gorgeous, the sea is choppy but gradual so it doesn’t feel overwhelming. A very nice hub for people to meet and get some beach time in. I wouldn’t miss this if you are in Santander, probably my favourite area!

Wonderful atmosphere and view! Beautiful beach with easy access to restaurants and drinks! Walkable... good vibes.

We enjoyed this beach area on the Cantabrian Sea in Santander. There is a lovely promenade and walkway along the beach. It has sand (not pebbles) and is flat which is great for walking. It can be quite busy, but as the beach is 80m wide there is plenty of room.

Very nice beach. Very clean and well maintained

It's such a lovely, safe, clean, fun beach with all ages and sizes coming together to enjoy the blue, blue water; the fresh cool waves, and the glorious skies. Fresh water showers, and lots of delicious ice cream and frozen yoghurt places.

Fabulously picturesque and immensely photogenic, the Magdalena Peninsula was the highlight of my stay in Santander. I wish I had a whole day to spend there and take in all the views. The sunsets there are simply magnificent.

What a beautiful place to visit even as a tourist. We were travelling with an aged mom and were delighted to hear that she didn't have to walk up the hill to the palace as there's a train (bus) one can hop on that takes a slow trip up the hill. Cost was 5€. The grounds are immaculate and there's benches placed throughout the peninsula where you can sit and enjoy the view. It's a lovely area to stroll around.

Inside the palace is exquisite and at 3 euros for a guided tour well worth it but the grounds and seascapes are stunning. You can see and hear the power of the waves crashing into the cliffs. A short bus journey (1.30 euros each way) will take you there and entry to the grounds is free.

Very nice, green and peaceful place! Perfect for a walk! Beautiful places to visit and eat! Surrounded by water with amazing views, and that sound of waves crashing on the rocks, ahh... miss this place!

The grounds surrounding the Palace are absolutely stunning, with beautiful cliff edges where you can feel the full force of the atlantic wind. The park is really well maintained and is a lovely place to just sit and chill. The actual peninsula is 5 stars for definite, but the park area lacks toilets and amenities. The mini zoo (with sea lions and penguins) seems cruel and unnecessary. The animals don't have much space and some don't seem very healthy, which put a gloomy cloud over what an otherwise lovely trip to the park.

It's very beautiful place. You can go to castle Magdalena or visit mini zoo. Over there is amazing view. You should to visit this place if you in Santander

The Magdalena Peninsula is a 28 hectare peninsula located near the entrance to the Bay of Santander. The peninsula is a popular recreational destination for both tourists and locals. The historic Palacio de la Magdalena is located on the peninsula, which along with its surrounding gardens, is designated as a cultural heritage site. Also located on the peninsula is a small zoo, three galleons of the Cantabrian mariner Vital Alsar Ramírez and a lighthouse.

A true gem in Santander! The palace is an architectural marvel with a fascinating history—it served as the summer residence of King Alfonso XIII and Queen Victoria Eugenie. The grounds are stunning, perfect for a peaceful walk, picnic, or just enjoying the views. There’s also a small zoo and playground, great for kids. We walked there (about 35 minutes from the city center), but there’s also a tourist train available. Access to the gardens is free, and guided tours of the palace interior are available and absolutely worth it. Facilities are clean, and there’s a nice café on-site. A must-visit for anyone coming to Santander—beautiful, historic, and family-friendly!”

If you are in Santander, you must visit this place. Besides the beautiful park and the emblematic buildings, the view is absolutely breathtaking. As a recommendation, if you enjoy walking, don’t take the little train to reach the palace. The distances presented by the staff who guide you are exaggerated — the walking times are much shorter.

I enjoyed going to see it but I didn't want to visit inside the palace. I found the outside space very pleasant to walk around and the exterior of the palace is really very beautiful and for those who saw the series Grand Hotel it is really cool to go there.

Situated on the western peninsula of the bay, this former palace is the centre piece of a beautiful park with an excellent circular walk, lovely beach, great viewing points towards the bay and out to sea.

Super pretty park with picknick area, toilet and view point, you can also find seals 🦭on the left side of the park, they got fresh sea water and seems happy but one of areas looked too small for 3 of them.

Really nice walk. It's on a small peninsula from which you have some fantastic views. Beautiful trees and a nice park as well to relax or have a stroll, away from the crowded innercity. There is also a small zoo in the area where we saw some seals.

Grand palace on the peninsula once a fomer royal palace gifted to the king by the people of Santander. A few art insulations surround it.

Nice place.

Sleek beautiful beach in Noja, much less rocky and considerably wider that its neighbourg beaches. Splendorous fierce sky, poetic and intimidating at the same time. Charming vibe of children flying their kites.

Breathtaking views and unforgettable sunrises!

White sands, some rock, really shallow and calm - perfect with children

Noja has the best beaches in northern Spain. You can walk all along Treganding beach. It takes one hour and a half. And afterwards enjoy a bier in the bars if Noja.

Lovely beach. Nice clean soft sand. Many bars about. Can get crowded though.

Beautiful landscape! Mountains, Sea and rocks. Good for surf or just to walk by the shore.

Lovely day shared with family and friends at this clean, wide and beautiful beach.

lovely big sandy beach with dramatic headland - and a prison at the other end! great for dogs, very quiet (Early April).

So many of the northern beaches of Spain are gorgeous, but this is just the most beautiful. Very beach just west of Santoña

Even more than the beach itself, which is awesome, I liked a lot all the way to come here, passing the bridges over the marshland. The beach is very wild and it was my first time surfing here. High quality waves altough its quite overcrowed...even in low season. We were like 60 people for 2 peaks.

Beautiful beach, very wide and deep, so lots of space. Would recommend . There is a prison right behind the beach!

We stayed here in an apartement right at the beach for a bit more than a week in April. It's a very nice, very clean beach. Wide and long. Fantastic views left and right. It's the Spain's North, so it's cooler and windier than in the more popular South. But for us the North is more interesting, it has lots of charm and so many different landscapes. Great food as well and lots of beautiful villages. Some days it was pretty windy and the sand blew in our faces, on other days perfectly calm and even warm for April. A great beach to walk on (too cold for us to swim in springtime). Morning and/or afternoons. Even though dogs are officially banned, in the off-season almost everybody had their dog with. Good for us, so our Bulldog was able to have some fun on the beach as well. Even though lots of dogs, the beach was spotless clean. Everybody picks up after their pets and pretty much nobody leaves any trash behind. Please do so as well when visiting. There are plenty of (free) parking lots along the beach. And in Spring, especially in times of Covid-19, there were always lots of empty spaces to park. Even on warm sunny days the numbers of visitors were very low. A lovely, quiet beach. That will change in summertime, judging by other photos. It also seems to be a great spot for surfing and windsurfing. A surf school is even located on the eastern end of the beach (as well as a prison: they must have great views from their cells). A really fantastic beach. Loved it. It was a joy to walk here daily and/or just enjoy the views of it. Also a very safe spot, never felt strange even in the middle of the night. So, if you visit Santona, head for this lovely beach...or try to stay a few nights even.

If you are in Santoña, you must visit this beach. It is big and beautiful.

My favourite dog beach in Cantabria. REMEMBER during the Summer you can enjoy It before 11:00hrs and after 20:00hrs. 🐾💚 Nice to surf too...

Amazing views! Easy hike but be ready for the stairs!

SHAME ON THE ORGANISATION Going there is disappointing as you need tIcket, which in google says 15 eur on other Homepage it is free.. IN FAQ OF THE FARRO IT SAYS no need for ticket .. But anyway the official homepage does not really say anything, the Sign on the street are tiny and almost not notable half the way .. FRUSTRATING ,DUMP AND ANNOYING going there more than an hour and then no entrance.. Some signs are unmotivated and really hard to see and find .. on the maps there is no information at all. Maybe local tourist information thinks tourists better not to inform in a proper way?? SHAME ON THE PEOPLE WHO DECIDED THIS, poor girl who works there an explains hundreds of frustrated tourists the sorry you cannot enter. And why 50 person limit per hour? Security only problems for some hours a day, the rest of the time it is not dangerous?? Or why ? The picture shows frustrated tourists not allowed to enter ..

Incredible hike! Not too challenging for athletes but those not used to hiking or running may find it challenging, especially the way back. The rope swing at the end is awesome as well! Bring bug spray during the summer because the trail is thick with horseflies. Luckily, for those without repellent, the entrance at the top of the stairs has extra if you go during normal hours.

Beware this is like a 12k walk up a mountain and in some parts are rockies then you have a 700 downwards steps leading to the most impressive views and if y like you can take a plunge in to the sea. Now the going up is challenging, if you are not in good cardio think about going down make sure have good hiking shoes and bring plenty of water. good luck have fun and be careful.

It is probably great but you need to get a free ticket from limited pool of 100 per every 2 hours. Unfortunately we didn’t know about it and we were not allowed to get down to the lighthouse and missed main part of our trip :( Maybe we will have a chance to come back someday.

Beautiful and stunning place to go to. It was also incredibly fun to jump in the water and swim around. The water was a little harsh so someone going in should definitely know how to swim well. The only negative thing about this place is that the hike to get there was extremely tiring. About two miles but all on cobble road and uphill and then a set of 700+ really sketchy stairs.

It's free to visit, however you need to book the passage of the 763 stairs during the summer months. It's not for the faint hearted! My daughter did the stairs down then back up in about 30 mins. The track up to the top of the stairs is uneven, but easy to follow.

As a caver from the Uk & has experienced lots of international caving expeditions & lots of tourist caves too I was blown away with the size & amount of helictites. The guide was super friendly & the handheld translation devise worked really well. Definitely worth the money & the 5star rating

A geologist's dream cave in the beautiful valley of Carranza. Many different formations, including rare eccentric stalactites. Beautiful!

The cave is absolutely spectacular, and one of the best I've been to. However, there is one major problem for English speakers - the translations provided are terrible. Our group was provided with two speakers for translations - unfortunately there were four of us, so this was unworkable. An app is available, but it is unusable. It needs internet access to download the content (not available underground), GPS to locate you (also not available underground), or QR codes to scan to show the translation (not enough light in the cave to scan the QR codes, and the app disables your phone light). It is also a stupid AR app, which attempts to show the translations at knee height. I'd have preferred it if they just said no translation available, to avoid wasting my time with the app. Alternatively, just provide us with a sheet of paper with the translation.

An amazing place. Before you go inside the cave, you can walk around outside, beautiful views of the mountains, there is a small restaurant, a park, bathrooms, and the old quarry. The scale of it, with its vertical walls of stone is a must see. Entering the caves is by guided tours of 50 people max. You must reserve ahead of time. The guides are very informative, there are hand rails and non slippery walkways. Absolutely no photography allowed, primarily for your own safety and to make sure the group stays together. But they eventually let you, when it's deemed appropriate, and then you will be able to capture photos of the rock formations, take selfies or panoramics. Doing it before, will get you an immediate removal. What you will experience will stay in your memory forever, no photos or words can describe it.

Impressive cave. 50min tour guide, worth any minute! Highly recommended.

Spectacular. Very interesting! Definitely recommend.

Well preserved worth visiting. Above average guilding. The only drawbac was that the visiting groups are too big.

Nice place to see animals with kids, not crowded at all (went in August in the middle of holiday period). The food is not great at all though, but it's to be expected in this kind of places. And it is true that some areas are to be refurbished (so they say on their website). We liked the fact that all the animals have been rescued, it's not a zoo and they are trying to be like one. To my opinion it's worth a visit!

Fantastic animals but terrible dinosaur and mysterious creature parks with no maintenance. Statues of dinosaurs seem abandoned with their paintwork peeling off, and the children's playground seems a hundred years old. Worst of all, the souvenir shop is a rip off although entrance tickets aren't expensive.

The worst thing about this place is the food served in the bar/restaurant. It's expensive to start with but apart from that, it's got hardly any choice and if you don't want dry, tough lomo, a chewy escalope, or an omelette (all served with cardboard-esque frozen chips straight out of the deep fat fryer!), you'll be struggling! It's self service, something which was surprising, given that the guy inside was just sat at the bar looking at his mobile every time I looked inside! Anyway, as for the place itself, it has a wide range of animals which, although in captivity, looked to be reasonably well cared for. The birds, however, were all in small enclosed areas where they couldn't fly. The dinosaur section is nice for kids and provides a fair bit of basic information about the different species. Good place for 2-3 hours with the kids but not a place to spend the day.

A centre where keeps animals and mainly some injured wild animals or abandoned exotic vets. Good place to go with children, that like animals with place to eat, playgrounds for infants, todlers, kids and youngsters. Includes a zone with robotic dinosaurs for the brave children.

Fantastic outdoor dinosaur park... Amazing for small and medium children who are into dinosaurs! Really lovely half day or full day out with the kids.

Great place to go with children. Lots of animals to see and some dinosaurs too. Very cheap and has its own place to eat.

Horrible restaurant. They took our order, charged us for it and then took more than two hours to serve it. When we complained they said that was the way they work. There's no other place to eat in the park and if you leave you have to pay again to get back in.

One of my favorite places in Bilbao. Nice atmosphere, bars, beach and of course the sunset. From there you may take a walk right to Portugalete. Easy to reach by Metro, Algorta station and then just go down towards the sea.

If you're in the Algorta area I highly recommed to visit this little fisherman's village. Cozy, beautiful sights and plenty of little restaurants to make a stop and have a taste of the deliciousness of Basque gastronomy. Fish is king here! Beach at the bottom of the village to top a wonderful excursion!

Nice area to visit with local restaurants and beautiful local architecture

One of the highlights of our Bilbao stay. Not to be missed! Good vibes, nice tapas bars, relaxed atmosphere.

Interesting celler tour and beautiful views outdoors

Lovely walk along the beach. Refreshing breeze, beautiful views and a taberna for a glass of wine, coffee, or a bite to eat. It's what a visit to País Vasco is all about!

Lovely place for a walk, nice atmosphere tho it was raining, I did enjoy most of it, worth visiting. 😀

Very interesting piece of architecture / engineering. Pretty iconic in Bilbao. We went on the hanging gondola, but you can get the lift up to the top and walk across. Apparently this was in the original design but wasn't added until much later

An interesting architecture bridge with a hanging gondola. If you have few hours to spare while in Bilbao. Recommend to take a train or metro to Portugalete and visit the site. Take the chance and go up the elevator and cross by foot on the top wooden platform, excelente views.

The bridge spans the estuary of the Ría de Bilbao where it meets the sea, in the province of Biscay (Basque Country), northern Spain. It connects the towns of Portugalete and Getxo. The Bizkaia Bridge is the world’s first metal-structure transporter bridge (also called a ferry-bridge), where a gondola (platform) carries vehicles and pedestrians across the river beneath a high span. Designed by engineer Alberto Palacio (with assistance from Ferdinand Arnodin) and inaugurated on 28 July 1893. It is considered a landmark of industrial-era iron architecture and engineering.

Inexpensive, fun, educational ride across the river on a "ferry" platform suspended over the river by a gantry crane operating between the two shore towers. One of only 5 of these 1880s "flying ferries" for cars an d people still in operation.

Crossing is very affordable at 0.55€ each, getting the lift to walk on the top is 10€ each. The views from the top are amazing, plus very high, with gaps in the wooden boards as you walk, can be a bit scary. Also when the hanging platform crosses its rocks the upper platform!

The view from the bridge is very nice. It is worth going up, walking to the other side of the river, and then coming back by the cable ferry

Really interesting piece of infrastructure if you’re into that thing. It’s only €0.55 to cross on the gondola, you can pay about €8 to walk across along the top but I couldn’t convince my friends to do it with me.

Very wide beach with nice sand. Not the clearest water though, but still nice. Beach was not too crowded on a Sunday afternoon. Parking is available nearby for reasonable price (8€ for entire day).

Love this quiet beach and pretty accessible with lots of parking spaces

Really nice small village with a big sandy beach. You can go here from Bilbao as it is the end of the subwayline. We went there on the bike from Bilbao and then took the bike with us in the subway to go back to bilbao.. great daytrip

Can’t say enough about this beach. It’s only two euros from Bilbao to get here on the metro train. We only had a day & didn’t want to take the 80 minute bus ride one way to San Sebastian. This was a great experience to come to a local beach community in Plentxia!

Super nice beach, very natural site with a sportieve walk starting here to the Lighthouse (about 6km round trip)

One of the best beach of Bizkaia. The have a parking for 8€ day and also ask for the hot water showers after been all day at the beach. Nice place to go with kid. Not a dangerous beach and it has a lot of space to por everything on the sand. If I had kids and I will want to go to a beach near Bilbao, this always will be my choice.

Very pleasant beach with ample facilities

Beautiful! You need to put in google maps the destination “parking hoyalante”, from there there’s a road you can take by car to parking 2 and 3. From the 3rd parking it’s a 30 minutes walk, very easy but bring water because it’s under the sun and quite hot during summer. Unfortunately there wasn’t any water, but the view is still gorgeous !

Nice walk, amazing views! For the waterfall remember to check the weather, it needs to rain for 3 days prior to make the waterfall.

No water during summer months, but amazing point of view. Just important to check if the road to the parking is open. In cas not it mean a 5 km walk on the road, quite flat.

Spectacular natural site with easy access, which means it can get crowded on weekends and holidays. There are three parking lots available and there is a 1.8 km hike from the closest one to the lookout. Note that the waterfall may have little water (or nothing at all) if it has been dry the previous days.

Scenic canyon! One of the "must see" places in this region. Highly recommended. When we were there, there was no waterfall due to the dry period, the river also disappeared. As the locals said, the river appears 50-90 days a year, because it gets water from rains only

VERY BEAUTIFUL!!! We got there and there was a parking area which was great. Since it was extremely muddy, the roads were closed. We ended up going on foot since there was a small grassy area. The walk was about 5km. We saw people also went on bike as well. Even if there is no water for the waterfall, the view was DEFINITELY worth the walk. You will not regret it at all. I have never seen such a beautiful view in my life!

Incredible views. Waterfall is sometimes dry but still worth it. Vultures riding the thermals. Bring plenty of water.
