Enterprise car hire locations in Santander

Santander is one of the most traditional coastal cities in northern Spain. It is the capital of the autonomous community of Cantabria, a region in the Picos de Europa mountain range that overlooks the Cantabrian Sea. Its mild climate is perfect for anyone looking to escape the blazing heat during the summer months. Its famous beaches, such as Los Peligros or El Sardinero, are ideal places to enjoy with family or friends. There are also plenty of attractions in the vicinity of the city, so many people choose to rent a car so that they don't miss a thing during their stay. Travellers have two Enterprise branches at their disposal, one of them at Santander Airport and the other at the train station, in the heart of the city.
