Somo is one of the surf meccas in Spain and one of the surf paradises in Cantabria. It meets excellent conditions for learning and surfing, with good waves all year round, suitable for all levels.

Thus, there is a great culture and tradition for surfing among local surfers. The beach of Somo is one of the most consistent beaches in Spain because it is oriented to the open sea and receives good waves throughout the year. It has more than seven kilometers of white sand and perfect beach brakes.
What is more, if there are no waves here, you probably will not find waves all over northern Spain. Somo is the idyllic place for learning and practicing surfing, paddle surfing, and bodyboarding. There is also a skate park.

With the island of Santa Marina and Mouro in front and surrounded by beaches like Loredo, Langre, and Galizano, it has good restaurants where to enjoy traditional food.
