Looking towards the bay from Centro Botín we can see the towns of Pedreña, Somo, the Miera Estuary, and further East, the dunes of Puntal. Inside this space, a boat horn blows for approximately 30 minutes; the same interval of time scheduled between boats departing from Palacete del Embarcadero to Puntal beach.
