    Food on Sundays

    I live in Castro Urdiales. On Sunday the only grocery stores open are a Carrefour Express on Camino de Ronda and a fruteria/mini-mercado next to the La Barrera bus stop. Both are in the city center. Restaurants, bars and cafes are generally open.

Santillana del Mar has Altamira (prehistoric cave museum)but it's a replica, not the original deal as in Ribadesella. Also enjoyed Ribadeo with a side trip to As Cátedras. Guernica...

    May/June/July Norte experiences re: weather, etc.

    Accomodation at Pasajes de San Juan

    There was 4 years ago when I walked the Norte. Picked it up right in front of the Bilbao airport. Much has changed in 4 years but Google might have the answer.

    Accomodation at Pasajes de San Juan
