This dataset contains information on the abundance and biomass of benthic macroinvertebrates collected in the estuaries of Tina Menor, Oyambre, and Joyel (Cantabria, northern Spain) between 2016 and 2019. The monitoring program was part of the LIFE CONVIVE project, which aimed to address the challenge of integrating human activities with the conservation objectives of the Natura 2000 Network in the estuaries of Cantabria. The project implemented environmental restoration actions and citizen awareness initiatives to promote the ecological value and sustainable use of these coastal ecosystems. Sampling was carried out during summer at two stations in the Tina Menor estuary, two in Oyambre, and seven in Joyel.
