Playa de los Peligros

Drop anchor in Santander's urban bay at Playa de los Peligros, a sheltered and scenic spot right in the heart of the city with fine sand and calm, swimmable waters. You're sitting right next to the iconic Magdalena Peninsula, with the two beaches flowing into one another — it's a great base for exploring the royal palace and headland on foot. The bay views from the water are genuinely impressive, and the beach itself has a playground and easy access into town.
