San Vicente de la Barquera
Important as a Roman port long before many other larger, modern shipping centers (such as Santander) were, San Vicente de la Barquera is one of the oldest and most beautiful maritime settlements in northern Spain. The 28 arches of the ancient bridge Puente de la Maza, which spans the ría (fjord), welcome you to town.
