Find the right area for your travel style
Parte Vieja
The pintxo district: narrow streets packed with bars, each counter loaded with 8-15 different pintxos, txakoli poured from height at every stop, and the San Telmo Museum in the old convent.
La Concha & Centro
The elegant seafront: the crescent La Concha beach with its Belle Epoque promenade railing, the Monte Igueldo funicular for the panoramic bay view, and the grand hotels and park.
Gros
The surfer and local neighbourhood east of the Urumea river: Zurriola beach with Atlantic surf, the Kursaal glass cubes, and pintxo bars with shorter queues and more regular clients than the old town.
Monte Urgull & Port
The hill and port: the free hilltop castle with Cristo statue and bay views, the Paseo Nuevo coastal walk around the base where waves break against the sea wall, and the fishing port.
