Mouth-watering food, pretty buildings & white sandy beaches. What more does one need?!? Image a smaller Paris, located on the water, with way fewer tourists, more relaxed & with a Basque twist. That is San Sebastián, the perfect mixture, all in one easy to navigate city.
What is not to love about this majestic city on the Cantabrian Sea? San Sebastián, or Donostia as it is called in Basque, has a circular bay with pristine white sand beaches that have long attracted wealthy beach-goers in search of sun and sophistication. This is what made the city famous during the Belle Époque era and it is also where Queen Maria Cristina established her royal summerhouse. The evidence of San Sebastián’s glamorous past can still be seen throughout the city.
