Peninsula of La Magdalena

Peninsula of La Magdalena, Magdalena Peninsula
Spain, Comarca de Santander
The peninsula of La Magdalena with an area of ​​25 hectares is located on the eastern outskirts of the resort town of Santander. The decoration of the peninsula is the former summer residence of the royal family, built in 1912 and the complex of royal stables, built in the style of a medieval English village in 1914. Currently, the palace is open to the public, congresses and conferences, various events, including weddings, are held here. The palace is surrounded by a beautiful park with wooden animal figures and household items carved from stumps. Also in the park are models of old ships from the era of the discovery of new lands.

For the youngest tourists there is a mini-zoo with pools with sea lions and seals, penguins and seals. From the park you can go down to the area of ​​sandy beaches with a length of about a kilometer, consisting of Danger Beach, La Magdalena Beach and Bikini Beach. A route of a tourist train from a steam locomotive and two wagons runs through the peninsula, plying during the day.

One of the main attractions of Santander is the La Magdalena peninsula. The place is very picturesque. In addition to the palace, you can stroll through the park, enjoy ocean views, visit a mini-zoo with penguins and fur seals. There are wooden figures on stumps in the park, an interesting solution. I don’t know about public transport, but I got there on foot along the coast, admiring the villas, the beaches and the ocean. From the popular Chicopuerto area, walk about 40 minutes. In winter, there are not so many people, this has certain advantages.
