If any European knows how to take it easy with style, it is the Spanish. Sunny days with a disregard for time, a nation-wide organized and regulated afternoon nap (siesta) and night-time fiestas in the S-Trip! Surf Shack.
The area offers a variety of surf conditions all within 5 minutes. Stunning cliff-top views, quaint coves, endless empty beaches and superb local seafood in the heart of the Cantabrian Coast. The location has been chosen as the local area offers year-round surfing with waves suitable to both beginners and experts. Famous surf-spot ‘santa marina’ is just down the road. Each night presents the option to party in local bars, socialize by the in-house bar or take the ferry across the bay to the clubs of central Santander.
Cruising the Spanish coast in search of the best wave… it’s a hard life!
