Cruises to Santander in 2026 & 2027

Santander is a port city on Spain’s north coast, in the Cantabria region. Cruise passengers can explore the waterfront, city beaches, gardens and shopping streets, or head towards the Magdalena Peninsula for sea views and historic buildings. The city has a different feel from Spain’s Mediterranean ports, with green hills, Atlantic weather and a more northern character. Santander can also be used for excursions into Cantabria, including coastal towns, caves or mountain scenery. It is a good port for visitors who want Spanish culture, but with cooler air, broad beaches and a working harbour setting.
