We could not have asked for a better location to end our Spanish travel leg! San Sebastian is a small city known as Donostia in the Basque language. Shimmering above the breath-taking Concha Bay, this elegant town has a favoured location with even more famous golden beaches.

Some of the beaches of San Sebastián are the beautiful La Concha and the spacious Zurriola which is especially attractive for the surfers. Every summer a huge number of tourists flock to this town in Northern Spain to occupy every square inch. The Isla de Santa Clara is also very well known among travellers. Ferries leave a couple of times an hour for the picturesque island so it’s easily accessible.

La Playa de la Concha, is a golden sandy beach sweeping from Parte Vieja (the old town in the heart of the city) in the east, all the way to to Monte Igueldo in the west and it is a wonderful feature of this city.

It is probably, if not, the only city beach in Europe and possibly the world, you’ll want to spend a while at splashing in the sea or people watching. And let’s not forget Playa de Gros (also known as Playa de la Zurriola), a favourite with surfers.

  1. loved the video, I know it's not what this series is all about but San Sebastian houses the most Michelin Starred restaurants per capita and It almost feeels like a dis-service not exploring, or at least mentioning, the outrageous tapas and wine scene when stopping there. That said I am excited to watch more of your journey.

  2. Hands down the Basque region has the best food in all of Spain. 🥂❤️I just adore San Sebastian and can't say enough great things about it. A must visit!💐 Thanks for your great videos.

  3. San Sebastian and the Basque region have only just hit my must see list in the last year. But, like you guys, I was quite surprised by the modern touches

  4. This seems to be a very interesting place, I hope I can visit sometime in the future. Seeing and sharing places like this is why I love traveling and make videos so much! And please keep up the great job! Subscribed!!

  5. Greetings Andre and Lisa! My name is Joe. My partner's name is Myrta. We presently live in South Florida. We both were born in Puerto Rico. Grew up in New York City. We met about 15 years ago in Florida. We are in our 70s and retired. Special note: Myrta was born in a town named "San Sebastian", Puerto Rico! I just found your Youtube video about San Sebastian and I will be showing it to Myrta, soon. She is presently on a 7-day cruise which is returning tomorrow morning. I went many times on different cruise ships with Myrta but now she goes with her many sisters. I see that you have been traveling by RV for many, many years! That is one thing I would like to do with Myrta, here in Florida, but she is a bit shy about being out in the RV campgrounds but I hope to convince her to go with me in an RV rental soon. I will continue to follow you around in your continued travels in Europe. All the best, Joe
