La Concha Beach

Highlight • Beach

It is one of the most beautiful and emblematic beaches in Spain because of its unique shell shape (hence the name), because of the green mountains that surround it and because it is right in the center of San Sebastián.

San Sebastián City Hall

Highlight • Monument

This building is a special highlight in the center of the otherwise architecturally very attractive capital of the province of Gipuzkoa. It's not for nothing that the town hall of San Sebastian is one of the most photographed motifs in the city. The magnificent building impresses with its front made of gold-colored stone, which gives the town hall a noble and radiant appearance.

Old Town Streets of San Sebastián

Highlight • Settlement

The most visited part of Donostia / San Sebastian is without doubt the old town.

Located at the foot of Mount Urgull, sandwiched between the port and the mouth of the Urumea river, it was built after a great fire in 1813. Its streets, full of shops and stores, restaurants, bars and cafes for pintxos (small snacks) and what are known as gastronomic societies (groups of friends who usually drink or eat something together, perhaps comparable to our regulars' table), are usually very busy, no matter what time of year.

In this district are also the two most important places of worship in the city, the Basilica of Santa María del Coro and the Church of San Vicente. You can also visit the Museum of San Telmo, housed in an old monastery, and the Plaza de Constitución square. The same area is also where most of the city's festivities and events take place. The colorful facades with painted numbers on each balcony remind us that it was once a bullfighting arena.

The streets of the old town were once surrounded by a city wall, but only until modern times.

The San Sebastián Tourist Information Office organizes all kinds of guided tours.

Old Town

Highlight • Settlement

It is the true social center of Donostia. It is located at the foot of Mount Urgull and is one of the best places to taste the famous pintxos in the numerous bars between cobbled streets.

Constitution Square

Highlight • Historical Site

The Constitution Square is located in the heart of the old town and was for centuries one of the most important points of the city of Donostia-San Sebastián. Once upon a time there was the town hall (the building is now the central city library) and was an important meeting place for locals for many festive occasions.
Today, however, the square is still the center for many events and celebrations. Every year, from the balcony of the former town hall, the municipal flag is hoisted to officially open the festival of San Sebastián. It also hosts many important cultural performances and activities of the city.

Nice walk through San Sebastian. Really one of the most beautiful cities with culture, mega city beach, sights and well-kept tapas bars 🍽️🍷👍😎

We walk through familiar streets of a city that has become a little familiar to us on our fourth visit. Some of the highlights come from personal experience.

Beach promenade, old town with the pinto bars, sunset, return to the campsite by taxi (8 km for a reasonable €15)

I can't quite follow it. The crescent-shaped bay and the beach are great.
The much-praised promenade behind it is a stone track without trees and charm. It slowly gets prettier towards the old town.
The highlight for me are the Pintxos Bars. The Basque version of tapas, but usually a bit more elaborate and creative. The name comes from the …
