He also went around Santander’s pride, the Mercado La Esperanza—boasting of countless stalls of Cantabrian delights waiting for you to sample them on.</p><div><br/></div><p>The host also met with international high fashion designer Audette, who gave him a pick of her marvelous pieces. Delving further into Cantabrian design, he viewed the exhibits in Centro Botín, perfect for art lovers.</p><div><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib" style="width:950px"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img loading="lazy" src="https://assets-metrostyle.abs-cbn.com/prod/metrostyle/attachments/9d5e753d-abc4-4d33-8fe4-35fddebc63e8_skechers eicom 4 - reco.jpg" style="width:950px" class="fr-fic fr-dib" alt=""/></span></span></div><p>Moving towards a more grounded experience (literally), Raul stops by the Campo de Golf La Junquera, a sustainable property that allows golf to be affordable and accessible to all lovers of the sport. From vast greenery, he then proceeded to Cabarceno Nature Park, home to over 100 species of animals. Here, you may choose to explore the different fauna on foot or watch them from above via a cable car ride.</p><div><br/></div><div><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib" style="width:950px"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img loading="lazy" src="https://assets-metrostyle.abs-cbn.com/prod/metrostyle/attachments/0cad496c-133a-4e21-8fa4-430282314460_skechers eicom 3 - reco.jpg" style="width:950px" class="fr-fic fr-dib" alt=""/></span></span></div><div></div><p>Of course, no Santander trip is complete without basking in the stunning seascape of the city. This is best enjoyed with a cruise—and Raul highly suggests that you do so. Boarding the ECOCAT 2, the only active boat in Spain with 100% zero emission, he enjoyed the salty air and coastal views that you can only see and experience in this part of the world.</p><div><br/></div><div><em>Watch full episodes of #EIContheMoveSpain on Metro Channel, available on Sky Cable channel 52 (SD) and channel 174 (HD), Cignal channel 69, and GSAT channel 70.</em></div><div><strong>Related Story: </strong><a href="/culture/film-tv/eic-on-the-move-in-northern-spain-premiere-new-sea/33481" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">&#x27;EIC on the Move&#x27; Explores Northern Spain&#x27;s Gastronomy and Scenery in Brand New Season</a></div><div><strong>Related Story: </strong><a href="/travel/highlights/metro-society-vip-lv-experience/17727" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">A Taste Of Parisian Heritage Through An Exclusive And Intimate Tour Of The City Of Lights</a></div>
