Albergue Surfhousegerra San Vicente de la Barquera is outside the town, next to the CA-131 road, at kilometre 29. It is a hostel with shared bathrooms, a garden and a shared lounge. It is a good fit if you arrive by car and want the coast in the east of the municipality close at hand.
Location and getting around
The harbour of San Vicente de la Barquera is about 4 km away, and the Puente de la Maza bridge a little less. To go into town for dinner or shopping, plan on using the car or a taxi: walking along the road is not a practical option.
Merón beach is closer, about 2 km away, a little over half an hour on foot. Private parking is free, so you will not have to look for a space when you get back. If you prefer to stay in town, compare it with other places to stay in San Vicente de la Barquera.

The rooms have a terrace overlooking the garden and, according to the property, a private patio as well. Bed linen is included. The bathrooms are shared and located outside the room.
