What is the best time of year to stay in a beach hotel in Santander?
The most popular time to stay in a beach hotel in Santander is during July and August. These are the warmest months, with average temperatures ranging from 20°C to 25°C, creating ideal conditions for enjoying the city's beautiful beaches like El Sardinero.

During this peak season, the city buzzes with activity, and you'll find beach amenities, watersports, and outdoor dining options in full swing. Families, in particular, will appreciate the lively option and the opportunity for extended beach days with plenty of sunshine. It's a wonderful time to experience Santander's coastal charm at its most vibrant.

As another option, June offers a fantastic alternative. The weather is already pleasantly warm, with temperatures typically between 18°C and 22°C, superb for relaxing by the sea without the full intensity of the peak summer crowds. It can be easier to secure reservations at the most sought-after beach hotels and you may find better value on flights and accommodation.
What beach activities should we do in Santander?
The best beach activities in Santander involve enjoying the city's beautiful coastline, particularly around El Sardinero.

El Sardinero boasts two main beaches, Primera Playa and Segunda Playa, separated by the Jardines de Piquío. These wide, sandy beaches are superb for sunbathing and swimming in the Bay of Biscay. You'll find plenty of space, even on busier days, and the promenade running alongside is ideal for leisurely strolls or a morning jog.

For couples, a romantic walk along the promenade at sunset is a must, perhaps followed by dinner at one of the many seafood restaurants overlooking the ocean. The gentle waves also make it a pleasant spot for a relaxing swim together.

Families with children will appreciate the calm waters during low tide, which create shallow pools superb for paddling and building sandcastles.
Can I cancel my beach hotel reservation on Expedia?
Many Expedia hotel reservations are refundable, provided that you cancel before the hotel's cancellation deadline. This is often within 24-48 hours of your scheduled arrival. Be sure to check your booking confirmation for the exact cancellation policy. For maximum flexibility, use Expedia's "Fully refundable property" filter during your search to find the right beach hotel in Santander for you.
