We will head to the picturesque town of San Vicente de la Barquera, one of the most iconic destinations on the Cantabrian coast, where the sea and estuary meet against the magnificent backdrop of the Picos de Europa. We will explore its historic bridges and the Puebla Vieja old quarter, designated a Site of Cultural Interest for its outstanding architectural heritage. We will admire the remains of its ancient defensive walls and visit the Gothic Church of Santa María de los Ángeles, with an optional visit to the imposing King’s Castle. After this fascinating tour, you will have free time to relax, enjoy a drink, or do some shopping.

Iglesia de Santa Maria de Los Angeles

Undoubtedly one of the most beautiful and surprising churches in Cantabria. Marvel at its floor, its soaring vaulted ceiling and the altarpieces adorning the altar, some featuring intriguing imagery.

Castillo del Rey
