Why visit this museum?

With interactive exhibits, audiovisuals, and dramatized tours, history comes to life in an authentic setting by the port, connecting past and present in a unique way.
Why this destination is a must-visit
Curiosities of Santurce: Sea, Tradition and Character
Santurce (Santurtzi), at the mouth of the Nervión, is much more than a coastal town — it is a place where maritime identity shapes every street, every story and every celebration. Discover the most fascinating curiosities of this unique corner of Biscay:
-
La Virgen de Guía: The patron saint of seafarers watches over the town from a niche on the street leading down to the port. Fishermen would pause here to ask for protection before heading out to sea. Every July 1st, her procession becomes one of the most emotional and crowded events in Santurce.
-
From Fishing Village to Strategic Port: Once a modest rural settlement, Santurce transformed dramatically during the 19th-century industrial boom of the estuary. Today it is a key port linked to Bilbao’s economy — yet it proudly preserves its authentic village spirit.
-
The Sardineras: A Living Legend: Immortalised by the famous song “Desde Santurce a Bilbao,” the sardineras became an enduring symbol of the town. These women once walked barefoot along the estuary selling fresh fish. A statue near the port now honours their strength and legacy.
-
Casa Torre Palace: Rising among the maritime atmosphere, this 18th-century palace reflects Santurce’s noble past. Once owned by the Marquises of Casa Torre, it now serves as a cultural centre, preserving models and exhibits that trace the town’s evolution.
-
Gastronomy: The Scent of the Embers: In Santurce, sardines are not simply eaten — they are celebrated. During the El Carmen festivities, the streets fill with the aroma of fish roasting over open embers. Whole sardines, grilled with coarse salt and without cleaning, represent a culinary tradition locals defend with pride.
-
Mount Serantes: Standing 451 metres high, this natural lookout offers one of the finest panoramic views in Biscay. On clear days, you can see from the Port of Bilbao to the coast of Castro Urdiales. For sailors returning home, its conical silhouette is the first reassuring sign of land.
Sea breeze, history and proud traditions — Santurce is authenticity shaped by the Atlantic.

La fachada del hotel es lo unico que nos a gustado, todo lo otro no.
Las habitaciones estan en el sotano del hotel,con la via del tren pegada al hotel, pasado trenes a todas horas.Y el desayuno, por ser un hotel de 4 estrellas, bastante pobre.....

Nos ha encantado la ubicación está muy cerca del transporte público y eso te permite desplazarte al centro sin complicaciones. Tanto el metro como el cercanías son un gran punto a favor. Está muy cerca de bares y restaurantes. Además pudimos retrasar nuestra hora de salida sin ningún tipo de problema y coste.
Creo que el precio del parking es excesivamente alto, teniendo en cuenta que ya te estás alojando en el Hotel y pagando por ello. Entiendo que haya que pagar pero quizás podría ser algo más simbólico como seis euros al día.

El hotel era muy bonito y las habitaciones estaban muy bien cuidadas. Además, se podía ir caminando a la estación de tren y a la parte antigua del pueblo.
El parking era muy caro y aparcar en los alrededores es bastante complicado.

La ubicación y el entorno excelente. Habitaciones cómodas y limpias.
Estuvimos alojados en la planta 1 (sótano) el cual queda a la altura de las vías del tren y es un poco molesto. Las vistas desde ese punto no son nada bonitas.

El palacio bonito por fuera y las vistas a la ría son muy chulas. Las pudimos apreciar desde fuera del hotel ya que nos alojaron en el sótano de la primera planta del hotel y no teníamos ninguna vista desde la habitación.
I would improve the building where the rooms are located, it smells of dampness and pipes.
I would remove the paper from the walls and sanitize it, worn and dirty armchairs, old and dirty carpet in the corridors, in the room, soft and uncomfortable mattress, very strange smell of damp in the room and a lot of noise when resting when the train passes.
I don't understand why the hotel has 4 stars, there are too many. I was disappointed.
Mejoraría el edificio donde están las habitaciones, huele a humedad y a tuberías.
Quitaría el papel de las paredes y lo sanearia sillones desgastados y sucios, moqueta vieja y sucia en los pasillos.En la habitación, colchon blando e incomodo, olor muy raro a humedad en la habitación y mucho ruido a la hora de descansar cuando pasa el tren .
No entiendo porque tiene 4 estrellas el hotel, LE SOBRAN. Me he sentido decepcionada.
