Puerto Calderón, Natural marina in Alfoz de Lloredo, Spain

The curved cove features high cliffs protecting a natural harbor with deep waters suitable for boats along the Cantabrian coast.

The port dates back to Roman times, with ancient mooring structures still visible during low tide near the current docking facilities.

The port functioned as a strategic free port between San Vicente de la Barquera and Santander during medieval times, fostering regional trade.

Modern facilities accommodate small fishing vessels and recreational boats, with direct road access from the village of Oreña.

The cove served as a concealed base for German submarines during World War II due to its deep waters and protected location.
