San Sebastián Attractions And Things To Do

Bask in the refined elegance of San Sebastián (Donostia), the culinary crown jewel of Spain’s Basque Country, where three Michelin-starred restaurants (Arzak, Akelarre, Mugaritz) and countless pintxo bars along the atmospheric old town streets serve the finest Basque cuisine—think flawless pintxos of spider crab, foie gras with apple, and smoked eel, paired with crisp Txakoli white wine and bold Rioja Alavesa reds. Stroll the iconic La Concha beach with its perfect crescent of golden sand and calm turquoise waters framed by Mount Urgull and Mount Igueldo, ride the funicular to Monte Igueldo for panoramic views over the city and the Bay of Biscay, or explore the charming Parte Vieja (Old Town) with its lively Plaza de la Constitución, the elegant Kursaal Congress Centre, and the serene Zurriola Beach—all in a sophisticated yet relaxed coastal city that perfectly balances gastronomic excellence, cinematic beauty, and the proud, warm hospitality of the Basque people.

Savor perfectly seared Basque txuleta steak, creamy idiazabal cheese, fresh kokotxas (hake cheeks in pil-pil sauce), and sweet pastel vasco cake amid sea breezes, golden sunsets over La Concha, and the unmistakable rhythm of a place where food, culture, and ocean meet in perfect harmony.

San Sebastián isn’t just a destination—it’s Spain’s most exquisite fusion of Michelin-starred gastronomy, postcard beaches, and authentic Basque soul—plan your San Sebastián escape today!
