Nice walk or even you can go by car if you are lazy. Great collection of different artists in an environment as good as the collection. Worth the visit!!

Faro del Caballo

On the cliffs of Mount Buciero, point of entry to the Bay of Santona (Cantabria), you will find this magic place of turquoise waters which is accessed after almost 700 steps.

Stunning views and surroundings. My wife and I decided to visit this place today after looking at photos on the internet and the place is stunning. Beware though, the nearest place to leave the car is 1.8km away and then there is a very steep, rocky and stoney hike before you reach the top of the stairs down to the lighthouse. There are 763 stairs each approximately 12-14 inches tall to reach the lighthouse but it is definitely worth a visit if you're reasonably fit, but do remember going down the steps is the easy bit.
