Been done before but you might need to rethink your final destination - ferry don't take bicycles AFAIK otherwise would have gone there instead of Santander.

Cycling in Northern Spain is great. They have a bunch of new motorways that take all the motor traffic off the "A" roads. And because the motorways are really new the A roads are still in good condition, flatish and straightish.
I went from Santander to Barcelona and that section to Bilbao was pretty hilly. Santander is the only bike port, Bilbao is car/lorry only.
I was staying in B&B's but I think wild camping is legal in Spain.

Pondering some sort of tour kinda thing, Caen to Bilbao. More bikepacking than touring as I'll be on my Vig. Is it feasible to bivvy my way down and stay in cheap hotels if it's really wet?
