The sunshine spot just 2 hours from Ireland with beautiful beaches, top attractions, €3 pints & €25 Ryanair flights
TAKE a look at the sunshine spot just two hours from Ireland with beautiful beaches, top attractions, €3 pints and €25 Ryanair flights. Santander is a stunning city located in northern Spain. 4 Santander, Spain is just two hours from Ireland Credit: Alamy 4 There's plenty to explore in this underrated gem Credit: Alamy 4 The city overlooks the fabulous El Sardinero Beach Credit: Alamy The hottest month in Santander is August with temperatures reaching a whopping 35C now in the country's recent heatwave. Santander is one of Spain's most underrated coastal cities, renowned for its breathtaking beaches, elegant promenades, castle and fresh seafood. And Ryanair flights from Dublin start at just €25 this month. Situated on Spain's northern coast, this fabulous city looks out over the Bay of Biscay – and it attracts thousands of visitors every year with its relaxed atmosphere and sunny weather. Ryanair bosses said: 'Santander, the capital of Cantabria, is without a doubt one of the most elegant and beautiful cities in the north coast of Spain, and the ideal spot to plan a trip. 'The sea and mountains serve as the perpetual backdrop of this city, which attracts visitors for its aristocratic feel, 19th-century buildings, charming open-air terraces and its breathtaking bay, considered one of the most beautiful worldwide. 'One of the cultural emblems of Santander is the recently opened Centro Botín, designed by well-known architect Renzo Piano and located along the city's sea front.' The sunshine spot is also one of the more budget-friendly destinations in Spain, offering excellent value for money compared to places popular with Irish tourists like Marbella or Barcelona. Santander lies along a spectacular stretch of coastline, with miles of golden sandy beaches and a lively promenade lined with tapas bars, seafood restaurants and ocean-views. Visitors can spend the day at one of Santander's popular beaches including Playa de la Magdalena, Playa de Mataleñas, El Sardinero or Playa del Camello. Fray Bentos to Fine Rioja Water-based activities are also hugely popular in the warmer months, such as sailing, kayaking and paddleboarding. What's more, tourists can take boat trips to explore secluded coves, spot dolphins and see the rugged Cantabrian coastline from the sea. Culture vultures can step back in time in the historic quarter or deep dive into the Cantabrian Maritime Museum. With an electric cuisine scene and pints from €3, there will be plenty for foodies to indulge in. Choose from sea-based dishes including lobster, sardines, and mussels or drop into one of the local tapas bars for a bite and some Spanish wines. Visitors can also try their luck at the popular Gran Casino del Sardinero or dance the night away at a nightclub. Santander is also a fantastic destination for history lovers. There are tons of fascinating sites such as the Palacio de la Magdalena, the imposing Santander Cathedral and the Centro Botín art centre overlooking the harbour. Visitors said Santander is a 'city with everything' on TripAdvisor. One person said: 'The Bay of Santander provides a natural harbour and a haven from the wild Atlantic weather, yet the city boasts three extensive beaches for sun lovers. 'But if you want to surf, you will find better breaks at Laredo 45k to the east. 'The old city, basically south of Calles De Guevara and Santa Lucia divides itself into a shopping area west of Calle de Marcelino Sanz de Sautuola and a restaurant area to the east although the line is fairly blurred.' Another noted: 'The city's castle and the park are spectacular, as well as the part dedicated to some animal species.'

New posh bus service launching across Europe with seats that turn into full-on beds
Plus, the world's longest bus ride lasts a staggering two months and travels to 22 destinations SLEEP EASY New posh bus service launching across Europe with seats that turn into full-on beds HOLIDAYMAKERS can experience Europe in a new way from November, by travelling on Europe's first night bus with lie-flat seats. Launching two routes to start with, the new Twiliner night bus will travel to eight European cities in total, offering "a premium travel experience at economy prices", according to the operator. 5 Europe's first night bus will travel to eight cities across the continent Credit: Remo Vettori 5 And inside, the seats lie fully flat allowing passengers to sleep Credit: Remo Vettori 5 The bus has 21 seats in total, with 18 upstairs and three on the lower deck Credit: Twiliner Win one of 8 incredible holidays to the Caribbean, Mexico and Greece by voting in The Sun's Travel Awards - enter to win here One route will run from Zurich to Amsterdam, via Basel, Luxembourg, Brussels and Rotterdam. The second route will travel between Zurich and Barcelona, via Girona. The bus will operate several times a week for the first few months, according to Time Out, but by next year the CEO, Luca Bortolani, hopes to be running the services daily. Read more on travel inspo SHOW BOAT I tried new Omaze-style draw for superyacht holidays & lived like a billionaire Inside the bus, passengers will find 21 seats in total - with three on the lower deck and 18 on the upper deck. The seats on board lie fully flat allowing passengers to sleep whilst travelling. And they are even patent-pending, as they ensure safe and secure travel in every position. Every seat then also has Wi-Fi, power outlets, storage, a table for working and eating, USB chargers and a reading light, as well as a pillow and a blanket. Also on the lower deck is a changing room, toilet and snack bar. The whole experience claims it is a new "planet-friendly" way to travel. European sleeper train with private cabins And the ultimate goal for the operator is to expand to 30 destinations across Europe within the next three years. For the time being, the bus is designed for adult passengers, - though children over the age of five can travel too, as long as they are quiet. Ticket prices vary depending on starting location and destination. However, return tickets can be found as low as CHF 150 (£137.18). Admittedly the price is higher than your average bus journey, but this is because Twiliner offers a more luxury and sustainable form of travel. Luggage is included in the price as well, with each passenger entitled to one large suitcase measuring a maximum of 80cm X 50cm X 35cm and one carry-on bag measuring a maximum of 50cm X 30cm X 20cm. 5 Initially, two routes will launch including one between Zurich and Barcelona Credit: Remo Vettori Night buses or 'sleeper buses' are common across Asia, usually as a budget-friendly way to travel. Passengers can usually recline their seats to lie-flat, similar to the Twiliner and in some, passengers can opt for 'VIP cabins' that have a curtain for some privacy. For example, backpackers will often use the buses and prices can be found as low as £15 for travel in Thailand. One common route is between Chiang Mai - the biggest city in Northern Thailand - and Bangkok, around 700km away. And whilst the quickest way to travel between the two destinations is by hopping on a flight, bus journeys are much cheaper. Travelling in 'Supreme Class' on a Sombat Tour Bus, for example, costs around 823 Baht (£18.72) and even though the seats don't fully lie flat, they recline 135 degrees. If you aren't too bothered about sleeping sitting up, then you can grab an even cheaper ticket for around £12.60. World's longest bus ride lasts nearly two months THE world's longest bus journey takes passengers on a European road trip of a lifetime that lasts nearly two months and travels through 22 countries. The amazing trip starts in the heart of Turkey in Istanbul and drives passengers through a thrilling European tour finishing in London. The bus is kitted out with comfortable, reclining seats that can be adjusted to the person's preferences. On average around 440km will be covered each day with the final total being a massive 12,265km. Indian expedition company Adventures Overland designed the record-shattering route and absolutely eclipsed the previous longest bus ride. The first trip happened back in August 2023 and Adventures Overland are now looking at making the route even longer if possible. The route is inspired by the famous European Hippie Trail from the 1950s to the 1970s and offers an entire tour of the best bits of the continent. The rest of Scandinavia can then be seen with Copenhagen and Stockholm in Sweden coming up fast. A new sleeper train is also launching this summer, with stops in six European countries. Plus, another new overnight sleeper train will connect 100 European cities with private cabins and panoramic views.
