Modern and cosmopolitan city of more than 32 000 inhabitants, Castro Urdiales, although very touristy, has many attractions. One of them is its historical past dating back to prehistoric times and its magnificent beaches. In the Monumental district, at the end of the Paseo Maritimo, there is a strange, soothing atmosphere, as if time had stopped to contemplate the sea. Here, the Santa María de la Asunción church watches over the port and its sailors from its natural pedestal. An amazing architectural mix of ancient and modern, this old fishermen's town has a magnificent seaside promenade and beautiful narrow streets in its historic centre. You can enjoy the surrounding beaches, the most beautiful of which is that of Brazomar, or take a walk or bike ride along the sea, or take a maritime excursion. For more information, visit the port of Castro or www.excursionesmaritimas.com. The restaurants and bars in the old town are supplied directly from the port and serve excellent seafood.
