Our first stop on this excursion to get to know the main towns of the West Coast of Cantabria will be in San Vicente de la Barquera, a fishing and fishing village, and whose port was and continues to be the heart of the municipality's activity. During the tour, we'll admire the privileged environment that surrounds this villa located in the heart of the Oyambre Natural Park. A park that we will also visit along its coastal path, you will love its estuaries, beaches, dunes and cliffs, a real natural treasure.
 
Our next stop will be to visit Comillas, the only town with modernist influence in Cantabria. You will fall in love with its heritage complex made up of the Palace and the Chapel of Sobrellano and the Pontifical University. Here you'll have some free time to shop or visit Gaudí's El Capricho (optional visit), probably the most eye-catching building in Cantabria due to the colours and shapes that intermingle. We may wonder why Gaudí chose this place to place his work in a place other than his beloved Barcelona. We'll find out on our visit!

Our excursion through the most important villages on the West Coast will also take us to Santillana del Mar, one of the most beautiful villages in Spain and famous for its medieval buildings, its cobbled streets and its collegiate church of Santa Juliana, a jewel of the Romanesque in Cantabria. In addition, we will be struck by the medieval architectural ensemble of mansions, towers and palaces. Here we'll make a stop to regain strength while we have lunch (not included).

To round off this day, we'll go to the Altamira Museum to visit its Neocave, a reconstruction of the prehistoric paintings of the original cave that was declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1985 and that will allow us to travel back to the primitive era of human beings.
