Perfectly nestled between beautiful hills and the golden beaches of the Bay of Biscay, San Sebastián (or Donostia in Basque) is the perfect city to be discovered on foot; whether wandering the narrow streets of the historic centre or walking along its most famous beach, La Concha. This seaside city in northern Spain offers everything you need for an incredible getaway: unique culture, striking architecture, picturesque beaches, and of course, delicious food , some even call it Spain’s culinary capital (and that’s saying something!). From multi-course meals in Michelin-starred restaurants to pintxos (the famous Basque equivalent to tapas), Donostia’s gastronomy will not disappoint.

But San Sebastián is not only a perfect destination for foodies. The city has also become a favourite amongst surfers from all over the world. Zurriola Beach is the most popular spot for locals and tourists alike to gather and enjoy some of the best waves Europe has to offer.
