Compact cars are perfect for navigating Santander's city streets, while SUVs are ideal for family trips and off-road adventures in Cantabria's countryside. For those seeking luxury, premium cars are available too.
Driving in Santander is similar to the UK, with the key difference being that Spaniards drive on the right-hand side. Parking can be a challenge in the city centre, but numerous pay-to-park lots are available. Remember, parking is prohibited in areas marked with yellow lines.
Seat belts are mandatory for all vehicle occupants. Unlike in the UK, the use of horn in urban areas is limited, it's used only to avoid an accident. A general speed limit of 50km/h applies in built-up areas, 90km/h on main roads, and 120km/h on motorways. Be aware that speed cameras are common.
Discover the city's vibrant neighbourhoods such as Puerto Chico, known for its marinas, and the busy commercial district of Cuatro Caminos. Don't miss out on Santander's sandy beaches. Apart from El Sardinero, Playa de los Peligros and Playa de la Magdalena are not to be missed.
With fantastic road connections to other exciting destinations, such as Bilbao and San Sebastian, your car hire gives you the flexibility to explore beautiful landscapes, historic landmarks, and traditional Basque cuisine across Cantabria.
With a mild oceanic climate, Santander offers pleasant travel conditions throughout the year. Euros (€) are used in Spain, and most places accept credit cards. Still, carrying some cash, especially for small businesses and rural areas, is advisable.
Join the locals in enjoying the popular annual festivals, such as the Semana Grande, a summer festival that includes a famous bullfighting event, and the International Festival of Santander, a celebration of music and culture.
