San Sebastian Spain also known as Donostia-San Sebastian is the capital province of Gipuzkoa in the basque country, Spain. Surrounded by beaches this place is blessed with pristine beauty located on the Basque coast of northwest Spain 20 km away from the French border.
Strolling on the La Concha beach, the most famous and usually packed in July and August with large number of tourists is simply amazing. It is larger on the west side with an island and boats in the bay.
Those people who love sports and adventures this place is heaven for them. La Zurriola is on the east of the old town and is very popular and mostly thronged by the tourists, as it is a surf beach where you can simply get in and ride the Atlantic waves and enjoy the beach sports.
Another beach Ondarreta is also famous for surfing and adventure sports. If you want you can go hiking on the top of the mountain between the beaches. Hire a kayak and try to measure the depth of the water and tryst with the panoramic view.
The city of Guipuzcoa is beautifully decorated with the breathtaking green mountain landscapes which attracts attention of all. Going to this place and not visiting the museums and knowing its past history would be something like things done half heartedly.
The Dominican monastery built in 16th century has remarkable collection of Basque artifacts from prehistoric times. The museum of San Sebastian is worth seeing.
