Museo Marítimo del Cantábrico, Maritime museum in Santander, Spain
The Maritime Museum of Cantabria spans 8,500 square meters along Santander Bay, featuring extensive marine biology exhibits and nautical collections.
The museum's collections began forming in the 18th century, enhanced by contributions from the Free Institution of Education and Santander's Nautical School.
The museum divides its exhibitions into four main sections: sea life, fishing practices, Cantabrian maritime history, and technological advances in navigation.
From May to September, visitors can explore the museum Tuesday through Sunday between 09:45 and 18:00, while winter hours extend until 19:30.
The entrance hall displays a 10-meter giant squid specimen and whale skeletons, representing the marine biodiversity of the Cantabrian Sea.
