The 32 best nature near Donostia - San Sebastian

For fabulous views of San Sebastián it’s well worth the climb to the top. Steep steps in places or more windy route available. Make sure you take water with you, there’s nowhere to drink at the top but there is a very good bar half way up and worth a stop.

If you take the view alone as a yardstick it cannot quite compete with its counterpart on the other side of the bay (Monte Igueldo), but Urgull can be explored in a relaxed and peaceful manner. Fortunately there is no cable car but there are some nice hiking trails, the small castle is well preserved and if you didn't already have the impression of looking at a miniature version of Rio, the statue of Christ confirms this effect.

Located in San Sebastián, Mount Urgull offers stunning views of the city and coastline, with paths for all fitness levels. The hike is filled with historical sites, with the most widely known as the statue of Christ. The greenery and vibrant gardens make it perfect for a stroll or picnic. Whether you're into hiking, history, or just enjoying nature, Mount Urgull is a must-visit. Highly recommend!

A nice walk up, with multiple spots to see the views but also some historical monuments and remains. Get yourself lost in this beautiful walk to the top and go to the castle-museum (free)!

Worth the climb. Great view of the lovley San Sebastian.

Mount Urgull offers an amazing vantage point to get closer to the Jesus statue whilst connecting with nature and history. The walk up is quite steep but the view is worth it. Along the path are a dozen or so signposted pitstops offering a snapshot of this sight's historical relevance. At the top there's a castle with museum accessed by staggered entry times. There's two entry points to the park allowing walkers to create a psuedo loop.

Fascinating little hill and old battlementsl with a labyrinth of interconnected paths that lead you up to monument over looking the city. Its not overly taxing as the routes are not very steep and have been designed to suit a range of fitness levels. You need a ticket to get into view the monument and should be booked in advance(tickets are free). Its an awesome 2 hours well spent and offers spectacular view of the city promenade and bay area

I loved the size of the beach. Despite the crowds, it never felt overcrowded. If you enjoy proper swimming, you can swim long distances across the width of the beach. There are also several good restaurants within walking distance. Plus, there’s convenient access to public restrooms. I would definitely recommend it.

Beautiful beach. Mostly always well kept. Even if you don't like sand is very nice to stroll along just about any time of day.

Fantastic city beach with safe swimming water. There is an arched promenade allowing for shade if needed with young children.

One cannot come to San. Sebastian and not come to the beach. For goodness sake, this is the paradise part of SS. Full of people but ALWAYS enough space for everyone. Amazing and a must come for the sunshine!

Very beautiful in picture beach in the centre of Saint Sebastian. I really love my visit to the spot. Lots of people enjoying the weather and the scenic view. Around the beach area, there is plenty to see, including tourist attractions and spots to enjoy refreshments and food.

Great walk around the bay and a lovely beach. Some great sand sculptures at the far end.

As far as I can tell it is no less than the most beautiful city beach or bay in Europe. Of course you have to be lucky with the weather, as on hot days it feels like the whole city is digging through the sand. The huge dimensions only become clear on a walk or a drive up one of the two hills (Monte Igueldo or Urgull). It is a little unusual that there is so little catering right on the promenade.

Better than expected with some great displays and some a bit baffling. A big variety and an important insight into the history of the Basque people and culture. Perfect for a rainy day. Wish we'd booked a tour in English to get more out of the experience. It was free the day we visited. We would have not visited for €10 each as there was not enough information for non Spanish speakers. It is tiring to translate.

Such a cool museum! It was a great way to learn about Basque culture, and I was impressed to find a large collections of art as well as many informative exhibits about Basque history. The building itself is incredible! Plus they had an awesome temporary exhibit about flora and textiles.

Very interesting museum, was glad to learn more about the history of the Basque Country in the context of the Spanish Civil War. The old church is outstanding! However I think the history had a clear left wing bias in terms of cultural/political changes in more modern times, and should be more neutral.

San Telmo is like stepping into a living storybook of Basque culture! The moment you walk through that stunning 16th-century convent, you’re hit with this incredible blend of ancient vibes and modern flair. Those massive Sert murals in the old church? Jaw-dropping. I spent hours soaking in the history, from prehistoric artifacts to sleek modern designs, and still felt like I barely scratched the surface. A quirky tidbit: the museum’s new wing is covered in 3,500 recycled aluminum sheets with moss growing through them, blending right into Monte Urgull like it’s part of the mountain! Tickets are €6, but go on a Tuesday for free entry just get there early to avoid the crowd. Bring a phone for the audio guide; not everything’s in English, and it really brings the exhibits to life. Don’t skip the Zazpi café for a quick pintxo break it’s a gem

A good introduction into the history of the Basque country. The museum is a good balance between history, culture and art. The chapel is a "must see" in the city. A good value for money alternative in the city, particularly for families, since people under 25yrs enter free.

We went on a Tuesday, the locals recommended us since it is free on Tuesdays. It was amazing, even if we had to pay, it would have been so worth it! They have a lot of information, you travel through time from the beginning till modern days, there are a lot of videos and mini films for each station, a lot of interactive stations as well. Not the typical boring museum, it is filled with stories, truly exciting! I would recommend it to anyone staying at Donostia! Must-visit place!

Really interesting museum, both the building and the exhibitions. Not very crowded which gives you plenty of time to check the exhibits.

Super nice view, that’s all as this s mostly a lil park for kids to run around. The funicular isn’t worth the >1 hour wait but I insisted as I thought I d be able to enjoy the ride, I was wrong. Overall attractions aren’t attractive, and the only hotel restaurant to avoid. There is though a lil bar on the side selling refreshments at half of the prices and queue, if needed rather go there. I mean, it’s a must go but you may be disappointed

Easy level trekking (more like walking), easier if you have car 😁. Loved the views. There is small entrance fee and also the other activities for which you have pay small amount but for one time experience I think it’s okay. It’s best place for kids, the park is full of games and stuff for kids.

Great views and trails but nothing much on the top itself. Enjoy the ride up stopping at the various points along the way.

Nice journey with the funicular to the top of the Igueldo Mountain where you can admire the spectacular view of San Sebastian and enjoy a meal or a coffee.

Monte gluedo its really amazing place

Breathtaking view! Entrance costs 2,50€ per person

Spectacular views of the beaches and San Sebastian.

Lovely park, not accessible for baby stroller or wheelchair everywhere but still one can enjoy. Very nice playground for babies

Fantastic park with variety of plants, trees and flowers. There are many birds, small lakes with ducks and swans. The atmosphere is relaxed and it's near the city.

Very nice little park just off the new center of San Sebastián close to the train station. The vegetation is very green, a clear indication that San Sebastián and the basque country get significantly more rain than the rest of Spain. The park is very well maintaines and clean. It is pleasant to walk along the alleys and as the park is situated on the slope so you can walk up and down the stairs as well. There are a few ponds full of aquatic birds.

Beautiful flowers and a lovely short, quiet walk to get away from the bustle of the city. Peacocks and ducks too!

The trees are beautiful giants! And the birds made it magical for my kid!

Great for a cozy stroll.

A really beautiful park with lots of special, wild animals!

I haven’t gone to an aquarium in forever— and this place makes me want to visit my local ones again. The sharks repeatedly swam over the tunnel they have here, allowing us the get a close up view of their fins,teeth,gills, and eyes! It was so cool. Definitely recommend visiting.

⸻ The Aquarium in San Sebastián is well worth a visit, especially if you’re with kids. The exhibits are informative and well laid out, with a mix of history and marine life. The highlight is the glass tunnel where fish and sharks swim around you, which keeps both children and adults impressed. It’s not a huge aquarium, but it’s well maintained and easy to walk through in about 1–2 hours. Ticket prices are fair for what you get, and the location by the harbor makes it convenient to include in a day of exploring the city.

The San Sebastián Aquarium, situated in the harbor of Donostia-San Sebastián, presents a comprehensive exploration of marine ecosystems with a focus on the biogeography of the Cantabrian Sea and broader global biodiversity. The institution houses a substantial collection of over 200 species, meticulously curated across diverse habitats. The centerpiece, the Oceanarium, a 1.5 x 1.5 million liter tank traversed by a 360-degree acrylic tunnel, facilitates direct observation of apex predators such as Carcharhinus leucas (bull shark), various batoids including species from the families Myliobatidae and Dasyatidae, and chelonioids like Caretta caretta (loggerhead sea turtle). Dedicated tanks showcase the ichthyofauna and invertebrate communities endemic to the Cantabrian Sea, highlighting ecological relationships within this temperate Atlantic region. Furthermore, the aquarium features biotope-specific exhibits representing tropical coral reef ecosystems, displaying a vibrant array of scleractinian corals and associated reef fish from the families Pomacanthidae, Labridae, and Chaetodontidae. Specialized displays focus on pelagic species, cryptic microfauna, and venomous marine organisms, underscoring the diversity of marine adaptations. The inclusion of a tactile aquarium allows for direct interaction with selected benthic invertebrates, promoting experiential learning. Beyond live exhibits, the institution maintains a significant osteological collection, most notably the skeleton of Eubalaena glacialis (North Atlantic right whale), providing paleontological context to regional marine fauna. Through its integrated approach encompassing live displays, interactive technologies, and historical artifacts, the San Sebastián Aquarium serves as a valuable resource for both public education and the dissemination of marine biological knowledge. Not a huge Aquarium but worth the visit. Specially the huge main tank.

Fantastic place, essentially the naval museum on the top two floors with model boats, history, etc. then natural marine wildlife, and down into two floors of aquarium. Very well done, very informative, and finishes with a pair of axolotl and a gift shop. Fantastic experience all around!

great aquarium from someone who loves sea animals, and a lot of history about fishing and ancient history it was great, although for me who is autistic I did get a bit overwhelmed by the people and had to put on music for myself. So if you have a child with any difficulties please prep beforehand

Not big but interesting and educational, aquariums with many species of fish, few people enter the hall called the auditorium, not knowing that there is a huge aquarium with large fish, you can sit and watch them. I really liked the walk and it turned out to be educational.

A fabulous museum and aquarium. Lots of interesting exhibits for all ages, wonderful tanks and friendly staff. It was just perfect for a rainy day and so much more than we expected. One of our favourite places in Donostia and we'd go again. Don't miss it.

Perfect little surf beach in San Sebastián. We rented boards and wetsuits from Hawaii Donostia and my daughter caught her first wave all the wave in. There’s plenty of space for different levels of surfing and the beach is so clean and pretty

Stretching about 800 meters, the beach is a popular hotspot for surfers and younger crowds. It’s known for its energetic water sports scene combined with the laid-back charm of Basque coastal culture. "Zurriola" refers to the local area.

Popular surfing beach but there is also a safe area for swimming. Can be rough seas depending on the weather. Nice promenade for walking.

Honestly I was underwhelmed at first but this is a great city beach… not as pretty as the city beaches in Biarritz… but certainly very usable, great facilities (maybe best public showers I’ve seen at a beach) , decent for swimming and fantastic for surfing.

Very Nice Second Beach of San Sebastian We really like this beach, it is a bit less popular than the one in town, also a bit smaller but that means there are less people too. That is somehow a positive point as it does not get so crowded.

Surfing beach!!! And also swimming beach. Yellow flag to yellow flag, around the place you can swim. Wonderful place to chill, windy and cozy💙 Here's some shower and restroom. Be careful when you swimming, too strong waves.

Looks like a nice beach. Unfortunately we couldn’t enter because it’s forbidden for dogs (we have two border collies).

Loved every bit of San Sebastian but saw this building and thought it was awfully ugly from the exterior & shame it’s covering all those lovely old beautiful architecture behind it, should be placed in a corner somewhere else..not at beach front

An impressive Congress Centre with a large main hall that easily fits more than 750 people as well as many other medium and smaller size meeting rooms. The terrace offers an impressive seaview but wind and weather determine if it is useful. The infrastructure is solid.

Very beautiful venue for our conference, in an amazing location! But the air conditioning is too cold

Very beautiful conference venue in a great location!

The Great Kursaal was an elegant palace built in 1921, pulled down in 1973. An empty plot was freed (1973-1999). The new Kursaal Congress Centre (1999) was designed by Rafael Moneo, awarded the European Union Prize for Contemporary Architecture in 2001. The initial impact of the buildings in the landscape was deemed negative by Donostians, thanks to the positive impact it had in the economy, tourism and cultural life, most citizens today appreciate it.

The place is beautiful. The sound in the speakers wasn’t very good.

Beautiful js beautiful one of the most amazing experiences i went thru in this gorgeous country uf not the first first

Great spot to take a walk and take in the beautiful house line of the amazing san sebastian. Great pieces of art, the sculpture are impressive in the mid day sunshine.

Where land and open sea meet; celebrated by Land Art. (I would have appreciated some onsite background info of the artwork. I think it is a play of the city's initials /symbols as touched by the sea and weather.) Powerful photo opportunity.

Originally planned to come here for a quick visit and ended up staying a lot longer than intended as it was such a relaxing place to be. It was calming watching and listening to the waves crashing against the rocks here, plus there were some great views across the bay. This would be an ideal place to watch the sun go down on a warm summer's day and if I'm ever in San Sebastian again, I'll be sure to do just that.

The restaurant offers a delightful atmosphere with friendly staff and exceptional food. Every dish was flavorful and beautifully presented. A wonderful dining experience that left me eager to return yes

Wonderful! An amazing ensemble of three iron plastics that resist the force of water and winds for so long. The ocean was calm and thankfully the fountain was not spewing water, but its angry voice could be heard. We visited early in the morning and there were hardly any people.

Very nice position on the end of the pier. A lot of people found their way here.

Cool place to take some pictures and enjoy the view for a few minutes!

Wide beach, packed with people in August. Don't really like it. The water is dead cold and not so clean. We had a coffee and a quick swim and back to the old town.

Visited for a walk after hotel check in. Many people enjoyed sun tunning, running, walking and relaxing. I wish I could visit again with beech goods like half pants, beech shoes and towel. It looks like facility has shower and lockers etc.

A wonderful, clean beach with a beautiful view. The beach is well equipped, has showers, and there’s convenient parking nearby.

We have family who live very close to the beach , and the views are amazing . The water is also very blue and salty🌊☀️ I would like to come here multiple times but I think alot of people have a budget to spend☹️

The place, wow wow wow I loved and I gonna to visit it more and more

What a view! Such a clean beach, I loved walking along it with my bare feet. There are showers and free toilets near the beach as well as foot washes to wash the sand off.

A spectacular atmosphere that combines natural beach landscape, mountainous relief and green surroundings.

The gem of the town, with such a majestic building, and MULTIPLE mass timings, which is such a RARE find in Spain. And the priests are very welcoming. I am so glad to get a chance to visit, and it is not to be missed, as it is near to all the major attractions.

This is a beautiful Gothic revival cathedral. There is a lot of work currently on the street in front of the entrance to the cathedral, but you can walk around the side of this to gain access. The steeple on top of the cathedral was a later edition. Inside the cathedral are beautiful stained glass windows amazing works of art, including sculptures and paintings. Each of the chapels are filled with beautiful icons. There is a beautiful organ. A magnificent cathedral to visit in the San Sebastian area

They don’t sell tickets, you can just go in. The ramp is on the side if you come with a baby stroller like I did. It’s beautifully lit up at night. A little more underwhelming in the inside (just compared to other ones) still beautiful . The little courtyard around it is not well kept, pretty dirty.

The cathedral is beautiful but we also went to see luminescence....a light and sound show in the cathedral which was absolutely spectacular and highly recommendable.

The Catedral del Buen Pastor in San Sebastián is one of those places that sneaks up on you. From the outside it looks impressive with its neo-gothic spire pointing straight into the sky, and once you step inside it’s calm and peaceful, a nice break from the busy streets around it. The stained glass is beautiful and the whole space feels open and airy rather than dark and heavy like some cathedrals. You don’t need a lot of time to visit, but it’s worth popping in if you’re wandering through the city center. Even if you’re not into churches, the atmosphere is relaxing and it gives you a sense of the history of the city.

Amazing architecture on all side of the outside if the building. Inside viewing is free and the stained glass is beautiful.

A wonderful Cathedral. We went there 29th of August to join a great event named Luminescent. San Sebastián Cathedral in Bacolod City has a rich history, established by missionaries in the 1700s and constructed from 1876 to 1882. It is dedicated to Saint Sebastian. The Buen Pastor Cathedral in the city of San Sebastián, Spain, is a separate structure, opening in 1897 and gaining cathedral status in 1953. There is no specific information connecting "luminescence" to either of these churches in the provided search results.

Nice architecture and very central location. As a tourist, I can't say it's worth the visit, but it will get your attention if you pass by.

Beautiful City Hall Very nice city hall that can be accessed through the nearby gardens. It is a beautiful pedestrian area. Well worth it and very nice.

Beautiful building! I did not visit the inside, but truly enjoyed the architecture when I was visiting the beach area of Saint Sebastian. There is a large playground for kids directly in front of the City Hall. There are plenty of various to enjoy refreshments and local food as well.

Bicycles nearby. Nice architecture

There is a lot of greenery in front of the building, which only adds charm to the whole building. Its perfect place for moments of rest from the sun.

Built in 1887 at the Gardens of Alderdi-Eder, next to the Nautical Royal Club, to house the main casino. The opening ceremony was attended by the Queen Maria Christina of Austria. However, it closed as a casino after the ban on gambling in 1924. On January 20, 1945, the council moved to this building and turned the former casino the City Hall.

Terrible parking system. Payment online doesn’t work. Many totems aren’t functioning properly throughout the city. Signs are confusing and hard to understand, making tourists waste time.

Great for a short hike!

Nice walk.

Trekking level is medium

Don’t miss

(Translated by Google) A wonderful natural area, where you can enjoy 100% of nature, many trails to explore with impressive sea views, impressive sunsets, varied and colorful fauna, different access points, whether on foot, by bike or by car. In the upper part you will find viewpoints, rest areas with tables to enjoy a snack and drinks; Small lagoon. (Original) Una zona natural maravillosa, donde puedes disfrutar al 100% de la naturaleza, muchos senderos para recorrer con vistas al mar impresionantes, puestas de sol impresionantes, una fauna variada y colorida, diferentes puntos de acceso, ya sea caminando, en bici o automóviles. En la parte alta encontrarás miradores, zonas de descanso con mesas para disfrutar de un bocadillo y bebidas; Pequeña laguna.

(Translated by Google) a magnificent view, the stairs saved our lives, we slept there I recommend even if you risk being woken up by a forest ranger (Original) une vue magnifique, les escaliers nous ont sauvé la vie, on a dormi là-bas je recommande même si vous risquez de vous faire réveiller par un garde forestier

(Translated by Google) It is a giant place to walk, many ups and downs, old stone stairs. Wonderful views of the city, the sea and the coast in general. Quite variable vegetation. In some parts the walk is dangerous, you must wear shoes that do not slip, and also plenty of water. Nice place to go trekking, spend time with family and disconnect from the routine. (Original) Es gigante lugar para caminar, muchísimas subidas y bajadas, escaleras antiguas de piedras. Maravillosas vistas a la ciudad, al mar y la costa en general. Vegetación bastante variable. En algunas partes es peligrosa la caminata, hay que llevar zapatos que no se deslizan, también abundante agua. Bonito lugar para hacer trekking, pasar tiempo en familia y desconectarse de la rutina.

Really interesting place where you can feel the heartbeat of the town. The finest ingredients for pintxos. Shame there is no tasting but there is history and atmosphere

Currently the building is under construction, however the market located on the underground level is still open. Entry is located via the escalators facing the building with McDonald's. The tiles in the market were very interesting and the market offered lots of fresh seafood and fruits (we didn't try the meats). We were able to pay by card at all the stalls we visited.

Little market with quality articles and some less, it's about each of us to check how look the ham for example or ask if this is natural or not... There was no fish today. A Lidl can also be found downstairs

A bit of a bummer, when I came down side market was closed. It looks like they’re doing some renovations. I’m sure once it’s open it’ll be nice.

Indoor (underground) market, quite a few meat and fish vendors most look traditional stores worthy of a visit to buy some good chorizo also a Lidl store down there

Most of it was closed, very small Market not worth the time if you're a tourist.

The workers super friendly. In the market you can found diferents products.

This is a wonderful area overlooking the beach, there seems to be a local artist that draws pictures in the sand. There is lots to see and do from market stalls to children's fair rides.

Awesome beach experience. Even though there was a lot of people you can find a place to put your stuff down. Water was nice with a little wave.

A lovely little park. It's basically the front garden of La Concha Beach. Well-kept and clean, no stray or unwanted elements, relaxed atmosphere. Ideal for a short break or a picnic.

A giant palace converted to a government building and housing the National library as well. All about its a plaza with old trees and flower arranged in patterns. Plenty of benches allow you to pick if you want to sit in the sun or shade. The bay is right there, so a walk around affords you a pristine view of one of the best beaches in Spain

Beautiful park. Amazing views of the beach, too

Alderdi Eder parkea is a pleasant urban park and leisure area situated south of Old Town and northeast of La Concha Beach. The park is filled with palm trees, other interesting tree species and nicely landscaped flowerbeds. There are walking paths, park benches, a merry-go-round and other light entertainment for the little ones. You can see the historic City Hall building and walk along the promenade enjoying views of the sea and beach nearby at Alderdi Eder Parkea. Overall, this is a nice spot if you are looking for green space or leisure grounds while in San Sebastian. Note that there is not much shade anywhere in the park so bring a hat and apply sunscreen if you plan to spend much time here.

Fantastic park with an amazing view of the beach.

Amazing place to watch the sunset, and surfers, would highly recommend checking it out.

Walk to this surfer beach part of town . It’s grungier but features incredibly beautiful sunset views.

Great view.

Super!!

Beautiful and peaceful. December 2022.

Beautiful Zurriola beach. Many bars and restaurants nearby. A place to visit.

Decided to visit here to get a different perspective of the city, worth it.

Probably one of the best museums I have been with my kids. A lot of fun. Nice explanation of physic laws but in general very fun. Includes different part like animal zone. Illusion zone. Physics. Also VR and planitarium

We spent a rainy afternoon here when visiting San Sebastian. It was a fab day out. Busy as schools were visiting but still got to see what was open. The animal section was closed but when I asked could we see they said yes and brought us in. Nice food in the cafe too.

The science museum is definitely well worth a visit. We spent about 4 hours walking around and interacting with the exhibits. Which was enjoyable. The children would also enjoy this place. It's 10 euro for adults and 7 euro for seniors. They do have a cafeteria if you want something to eat and drink. There do have limited carparking.

A really enjoyable afternoon. Interesting exhibitions with lots of interactive displays. Public toilets, ramps and children's area. When we were there, there were school tours here too. Suitable for all ages. Cafeteria on site, serving snacks, hot meals, sandwiches, coffee and soft drinks. Parking spaces available on site. Perfect for rainy days. It is possible to reach the museum by bus.

Absolutely amazing museum with a huge variety of interactive exhibits plus fascinating animals and a planetarium. It's not expensive and that leaves money to spend on the simulators which the kids loved too! Both my kids loved it and so did we. We spent 5 hours there and could've stayed longer. Highly recommended.

I really liked a lot of the exhibits, fun and educational. Kids loved the VR section too. However, -1 stars for using pictures of Arizona as the backdrop for the Australian lizard exhibit.

If you are an animal-friend, just do not support the museum. The aligator and turtoises live in such small cages, it is quite heartbreaking to see. Also quite hypocritical, the museum has a quote on the wall. “To care you have to understand” and when you walk a bit further you see animal cruelty. The animals even look kind of dead, we stayed a long and saw them move, they do not look happy. Please do not give them your money or your time.

We ended up choosing this place to eat because there were no other options available. However, we were pleasantly surprised by the portion size and quality considering the price, even though it was not that cheap for a light lunch.

Great value lunch. €25 for three courses plus wine!

Friendly service and nice views of the forest in a relaxed atmosphere

Nice and cozy. A lot of vegetarian and vegan options, which is rare for San Sebastián. Nice presentation of meals.

Please seek out other nearby eating locations. I do not recommend this place at all even if you are staying in the Hotel Arima. Service is non-existent, our waitress left during our meal as she was done with the shift and maybe told no one about us because it took 10 minutes for us to get our check. The food is nothing to write about, it is presented with fancy decor but tastes bland. I have had corner delis in NYC make better tasting food for 1/3 of the price. The seating arrangement is also odd, we got sat on the outer edges of the establishment rather than the center where it seemed that was slightly better service and forgotten about. It took 15 minutes after seating to take the order, then 20 minutes to get drinks and 10 minutes after that to get our food, waiting an extra 10 minutes for our check after I requested it, I had enough and walked to the register to pay. Honestly it probably would have taken 10 more minutes to process the payment. The one thing this has going for it is that the atmosphere is nice, and you are located at the edge of a small forest. Also, the place is pretty clean and nicely decorated but we aren't there for the views.

The breakfast is a joke. Or at least the fruit bowls are a joke. A runny, cold, liquidy juice made out of fruits with maybe some milk/water and some seeds/cereals on top. The croissants and carrot cake are pretty good. Long waiting times, even though there are 3 waiters.

We went for dinner. The menu is not very big but definitely interesting. We liked our dishes, especially the giozas and the pork confi with peach. The service is great and the forest feeling around adds to the whole experience. Some ambient music might help to ease the buzziness of the large crowded area.

I visited this park on a Saturday morning. It was peaceful. There were other people there as well. There are buildings to see, a cafe, a playground, a waterfall, a palace, walking paths, a pond, and all the beautiful plants you would expect to see at a park. I enjoyed the walk and things to see.

Beautiful park with a crypt that can be visited. The cultural centre is also really beautiful.

Came across this park by accident really and spent a lovely afternoon there. Really beautiful landscaping with a relaxed atmosphere. Great place for kids to explore with a playground and a little cafe for the adults. Well worth a visit.

Delightful park to walk, even if it's high up a hill!

Very big and beautiful park. It has man old trees, some of which are more than 1000 years. It has a pond, a waterfall, nice benches and routes around the park. For people with kids, there is a playground and a bar.

Nice zone to walk. It has a large amount of green area and a small waterfall.

Quiet and very pleasant place. Nice for a walk. It also got a nice playground, though the kids will end up full of sand and dirt. Charmy park. I understand why Franco was coming here every summer.

Nice market but…very small. I don’t know what I expected. But certainly something bigger than this. There are two floors. The ground floor has like 10-15 small shops for groceries and a few snack bars. Downstairs you can find a very nice super market with plenty of local specialties.

Very nice market, not so big, but well organized

Beautifully renovated historic market place in the center of Old Town. Many gourmet shops and fish stands. Basement had a good supermarket

Was an amazing experience seeing all the fresh produce! A lot of stuff seemed to be on the pricier side but a lot of selection. Side note! We went downstairs to the supermarket and found the best crisps ever! Would recommend for everyone to try if you like iberico ham!

Nice place. Right by the promenade. It's surrounded by neat restaurants and places of interest. It's got beautiful gardens too. It's the ideal starting point for a 3 hour walk back and for from one end the the other of the shell.

Meat is high quality. Prices fair. Central location. Parking underneath.

Pricey but a really nice mercado. The bakery on the ground floor offers great coffee and croissants

Beautiful place for various viewpoints. A must visit place if you are visiting San Sebastian. Please do go for the rollercoaster and water ride to enjoy them along with the mesmerizing views.

Due to the amusement parks located here one might easily get the impression that a trip here would only be worthwhile for families. But that couldn't be further from the truth: the breathtaking panoramic view of the bay and beaches of San Sebastian is almost unique in Europe. When it's very hot the mountain railway takes you to the top in no time and waiting times are kept to a minimum. At the top there is a wonderful opportunity to enjoy a short boat trip on artificial water channels. Experiencing the city from a bird's eye view is simply a must for every visitor.

Absolutely stunning place to spend a few hours in San Sebastian. The view really gives context to the whole beautiful area, I don’t know how you could take a bad shot. You take the funicular up to this spot. All the games and attractions were closed when we were there, but the restaurant had a limited menu and there was an ice cream snack shop open as well. You don’t need more than an hour or so if the attractions aren’t open unless you want to spend a few hours at the café gazing out.

Fantastic views. Took the funicular up and down. We visited out of season, end of September so no waiting. High season I’d expect a lot more people, especially small children going for the amusement park which was closed during our visit.

Definitely worth the climb to the top of the tower we took the funicular railway to the amusement park and then paid the €3 to go to the top of the tower. The views are spectacular.

Excellent views over San Sebastian and lovely area to stroll around and enjoy the various attractions in a quaint amusement park. Plenty of seating around to also rest on a warm day. €4 to travel up to it on the 100 year old funicular.

A fantastic hike up to the Monte Igueldo viewpoint in San Sebastián! The trail was beautiful, and the views from the top were absolutely incredible. Highly recommend it!

Nice hike from the San Sebastian beach -- affords a nice view of the city but almost 'too far' away from the beach to get any great photos. I found some of the best photos after 5-10 minutes of climbing the steps right behind the beach!

Good

(Translated by Google) A true lung in Donosti; beautiful and very little known. Located on the mountain of the same name, it can be accessed from the Puio, Errondo or Aiete neighborhoods. Very well maintained, it has several red paved roads to explore it. From the old villa at the top, there are magnificent views of Donosti. It has very good access for wheelchairs and the slopes are not very steep. (Original) Un auténtico pulmón en Donosti; precioso y muy poco conocido. Localizado en el monte del mismo nombre,se puede acceder desde el barrio de Puio, Errondo o Aiete. Muy bien cuidado, tiene varios caminos asfaltados de rojo para recorrerlo.

(Translated by Google) A spectacular park, if it weren't for the traffic of cars going to the nuns' village and they find it a drama to walk 200 meters, and on top of that with bad manners (Original) un parque espectacular ,si no seria por el trafico de coches que van a la villa de las monjas y que les parece un drama andar 200 metros ,y encima con malos modos

(Translated by Google) Unusual view of the city. Although in summer the leaves on the trees somewhat limit the view. From the park you can see Mount Igeldo and the sunsets, when the sky is clear, are spectacular. An ideal park for walking with the dog, alone or in good company. A quiet place to go up with a good book and a beer. (Original) Vista poco habitual de la ciudad. Aunque en verano las hojas de los árboles limitan algo la vista. Desde el parque se divisa el monte Igeldo y las puestas de sol, cuando el cielo está despejado, son espectaculares. Un parque ideal para pasear con el perro, solo o en buena compañía. Un lugar tranquilo al que subir con un buen libro y una cerveza.

In the 19th century, La Concha beach was the place where Queen Isabel II came for her bath therapy. Because of this, San Sebastián automatically turned into the summer residence of the Spanish royal family, and due to this, also other European royals spent their summers in this beautiful city.

An island in the bay of la Concha. It can be reached by boat from the port of San Sebastian

Amazing beach weather today.

It's very pretty, but it's also real. Ven y cuéntalo! 😉

(Translated by Google) It is also not necessary that you walk to the foot of the sculpture, but you do not lose anything by doing so. (Original) Tampoco es necesario que llegues en tu pasear hasta el pie de la escultura, pero tampoco pierdes nada por hacerlo.

(Translated by Google) It has a pleasant walk, although the sculpture doesn't seem like much to me, for the walk and the views, it is worth it (Original) Tiene un paseo agradable, aunque la escultura no me parece gran cosa, por el paseo y las vistas, merece la pena

(Translated by Google) This monument was previously located in Amara next to the football stadium. Now it's better in sagas. That symbol has to be clearly visible so that we do not forget its meaning. It is important to always remember peace and always keep it in mind. (Original) Este monumento se encontraba antes en Amara al lado del estadio de futbol. Ahora esta mejor en sagues. Ese símbolo tiene que estar bien a la vista para que no se nos olvide su significado. Es importante recordar siempre la paz y tenerla siempre presente.

Spacious, light, clean, modern, quick, reasonable prices.... what more do you want? Contactless payment even with my most complicated payment card possible. Chapeau!

A good laundry. Can pay by card. 10 Euro for small (15kg) wash, 5 Euro for 20min dry. All automatic - no need to bring detergent. When you pay at the pay station, you need to select the machine, then press the green button on the card reader to pay, then the relevant button on the washer or dryer.

accepts card (not amex) and euros (€20 max denomination). has english instructions. takes 20kg, 4 washers, 4 dryers. auto-dispenses detergent. maximum convenience for tourists :)

Clean laundromat in the Gros neighborhood. Washing cost 10€ and drying cost 5€. Had 4 washers and 4 dryers and, as advertised, both cycles took less than 1 hour. Can’t ask for more than that

Turned up with a couple of loads of washing but the payment machine was broken. This was disappointing as everything else about this laundry seemed great - it was clean, well organised, and I liked that the machines automatically add the detergent. But without being able to use the payment machine there was no way to utilise the facilities.

Unbelievably positive experience here! I’m currently travelling Europe so laundromats have become a big part of my week to week, by chance the machines overcharged me and within minutes of texting their instagram the owner accepted the mistake and refunded me everything that had overcharged! Couldn’t recommend this shop enough!!

This is a very clean laundromat. I came here because the one in the old town was crowded, but this place was empty. Washing costs €13 with cash and €12 with card. It’s a bit pricey, but if other locations are busy, this is a good alternative.

The spa is settled outside of the city hustle and easy to get to by bus if you don’t have a car. We enjoyed the sauna and pools before an AMAZING massage. Janire was my therapist who did a fantastic sport massage and found knots I didn’t know I had. I would highly recommend her with her knowledge and effort to find what your body needs.

It would be unkind and irresponsible to gatekeep such an incredible gem. Absolutely stunning decor with a modern vibe. One of the best massages of my life as well. Service was fantastic. Skip the other spots and come here for SURE

(Translated by Google) The facilities are spectacular. As soon as you enter it gives you the feeling of relaxation. I have done the body + facial De-stress treatment and I loved it. I was lucky to have it done for me by Janire, who was very professional and took all the details into account from the first moment. Without a doubt a place that I will recommend and return to. (Original) Las instalaciones son espectaculares. Nada más entrar te da la sensación de relax. Yo he hecho el tratamiento De-stress de cuerpo + facial y me ha encantado. He tenido la suerte de que me lo haya hecho Janire, muy profesional y que desde el primer momento ha tenido todos los detalles en cuenta. Sin duda un sitio que recomendaré y volveré.

(Translated by Google) The best gift they have ever given me. A bonus for the spa and de-stressing body and face massage. The spa is small but the capacity is very limited, you feel that the pool and the sauna and the jets are almost just for you, it seems as if your millionaire friend had invited you to his mansion and you were the protagonist of a movie. The de-stressing body massage is amazing. They take care of all the details; the relaxing music, the hammock with warmth, a towel like a blanket. But the truly spectacular thing about the experience is the masseuse, she spends the entire session doing manual therapy, pampering you. I really found it rewarding, de-stressing and highly recommended. I entered like a stone and left like butter, but also the mental noise that I brought with me has gone away and I have managed to not think about anything other than the feeling of well-being. Thank you (Original) El mejor regalo que me han hecho jamás. Un bono para el spa y masaje desestresante de cuerpo y cara. El spa es pequeñito pero el aforo es muy limitado, sientes que la piscina y la sauna y nos chorros están casi solo para ti, parece como si tu amigo millonario te hubiera invitado a su mansión y fueras el protagonista de una película. El masaje desestresante de cuerpo es una pasada. Cuidan todos los detalles; la música relajante, la hamaca con calorcito, una toalla como una manta. Pero lo relamente espectacular de la experiencia es la masajista, está toda la sesión haciendo terapia manual, mimandote. Realmente me ha resultado gratificante, desestresante y altamente recomendable. He entrado como una piedra y he salido como la mantequilla, pero además el ruido mental que traía se ha ido y he conseguido no pensar en nada más que en la sensación de bienestar. Gracias

(Translated by Google) Izaskun un cielo. Thank you. Very nice experience. If you want to give a good gift, a very good option! The massage was fantastic and the treatment was great.

Zona de masaje amplia y confortable. En concreto, el masaje que me dieron fue intenso y efectivo. Buena profesional!!! Además, el restaurante próximo así como el entorno son recomendables 100%.

(Translated by Google) Quite large and very quiet park. The vegetation is very beautiful and cared for, but it is true that in some areas it is a little neglected: trash cans, signs, playgrounds, exercise areas. On the other hand, as citizens, since we cannot do anything about it, let's at least keep the area clean. Within this park, we can only find one toilet next to a fort. This fort is small but very nice to visit. We also have a hostel where you can stay or have a drink at the bar. Outside of it we have a picnic area, although further up we also have another area with tables and a playground. (Original) Parque bastante amplio y muy tranquilo. La vegetación está muy bonita y cuidada, pero es verdad que en algunas zonas está un poco descuidado: papeleras, carteles, parques infantiles, zona de ejercicios. Por otra parte, nosotros como ciudadanos al no poder hacer nada por ello, al menos mantengamos limpio la zona. Dentro de este parque, podemos encontrar solamente un aseo por al lado de un fuerte. Este fuerte es pequeño pero está muy bonito para visitar. También tenemos un albergue para poder hospedarse o tomar algo en su bar. Fuera de él tenemos una zona de picnic, aunque más arriba también tenemos otra zona con mesas y un parque infantil.

(Translated by Google) A good park for walking, the signs need cleaning. A very positive aspect is that it includes an entrance to the Ametzagaina bar complex.

Muy positivo que incluye una entrada al complejo del bar de Ametzagaina. La hierba mal cortada en algunas zonas por los operarios, podrían poner ovejas o algo así.

(Translated by Google) A nice park to walk, ride a bike, run, etc. The entire park surrounded by trees has benches to sit, read, be quiet, see squirrels, birds and you have a shelter to spend a weekend with the family if you come from outside.
