Santander travel tips

Santander is one of the safest cities in Spain

The local crime rate is low, and you won’t feel uneasy on its streets even at night. Still, some general precautions are necessary. For instance, leaving your valuables on a beach unattended isn’t a great idea. A little caution wouldn't hurt even in this peaceful corner of Spain!

Mind the siesta in Santander

Try not to plan anything between 14:00 and 17:00 in Santander, except eating and relaxing. You will surely find at least some shops open the whole day in a modern city. Still, your options will be limited, as locals tend to take a break and have a rest at that time. Take that into account and try to adjust to the Spanish schedule.

Drive slowly and carefully through Santander streets

In Spain, the latest speed limit for roads with one lane in each direction is 30km/h. If the road and pavement are on the same level, it is even lower — just 20km/h. For two and more lanes in each direction, the maximum speed is 50km/h. Should you be caught speeding, you will pay from €100 to €600 depending on the seriousness of the offence. Respect the law and drive safely!
