San Sebastian/Donostia

Guipuxkoa

 

 

 

The queen of the beaches

La Concha beach is a beach full of history and stories. Isabel II made La Concha beach fashionable in 1845, after her doctors recommended bathing in the sea for her skin problems. Following her, and with the new fashion of going to the beach, came the rest of the court and the aristocrats of high society who gave rise to the elegant and distinguished San Sebastián. Then came everything else: the nickname of the Pearl of the Bay of Biscay, the tourists and the recognition as one of the most beautiful urban beaches in the world.

 

Going into the old part means getting to know the true social center of Donosita, its cobbled streets such as 31 de Agosto, which commemorates the fire that day in 1813, are full of bars where you can enjoy the best pintxos in the city, and its Emblematic buildings such as the Basilica of Santa María del Coro and the San Vicente Church are of great attraction and interest. and much more

Remember that throughout the Basque country, in addition to SPANISH, BASQUE is spoken, which means that all its cities have their names in both languages.
