full conference will comprise a three-day technical programme and exhibition

Travel
Information
Santander is a beautiful
city located in the North Coast of Spain, in the region of Cantabria. It
enjoys an extraordinary landscape mainly due to its coastal location, forming
a peninsula surrounded by a bay, and its cliff coastline open to the Bay
of Biscay. But perhaps the beaches are its best known and appreciated natural
spaces. Its sinuous outline offers both small and large sandy beaches:
some sheltered from the wind and with calm waters; others, open to the
Bay of Biscay, with more surf. Next to these and between them, green spaces
of great beauty look to the coast.
Santander has beautiful
surroundings with many possibilities for cultural and outdoors activities.
The region of Cantabria is located in the central area of the coast of
the Bay of Biscay and marked by the rough relief of the Cantabrian Mountain
Range. The main tourist attractions of Cantabria are undoubtedly its landscape
and privileged natural environment, together with its great artistic monuments,
such as the many caves with prehistoric paintings, the roman village of
Julióbriga, the medieval village of Santillana del Mar, and many
more. For additional information on tourism and hotels see:
