A romantic place where the waves of the sea, iron, stone, wind and sculpture originality come together. A nice walk by the sea.

Highly recommend this if visiting the San Sebastian area. It's a nice walk to the top with superb views across both sides of San Sebastian. Overall walk takes maybe an hour from top to bottom at a leisurely pace. Take some water if the weather is warm as it can be tough is some parts

Wander the old town and lose yourself amongst the narrow streets, with so many restaurants/bars to stop at for refreshment and so many sites to see and explore.

We had no idea this lovely place was here and just lucked upon it when looking for something to do in Azpeitia. The towered house is the birthplace of Saint Ignacio de Loyola in 1491 and the adjacent sanctuary, a round basilica, very impressive was built over a century later.

The architecture is something to marvel at. Inside, the church was very solemn and quiet, good for prayer and reflection. Outside, the view is also great!
8. Miramar Palace
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 586 reviews
Reviewed By marylit2017 - San Sebastian - Donostia, Spain
The name of this place says it all 'Miramar' Palace, it certainly looks onto the sea, and what incredible view! It's the former summer residence of the Spanish queen Maria Cristina who spent her summers here for 40 years. It currently hosts the University Summer Courses and other special events. During the summer it opens at weekends for visits. In any case, it's worth just popping in for a stroll on the grounds and gardens to enjoy the magnificent views of the Concha bay.
9. Museo del Ferrocarril

This place is amazing. There is so much to see here, with beautifully restored railway carriages, engines, buses and trams, fascinating displays of machine tools, uniforms and station clocks. You get an idea of how much time and care has been put into the restorations when you see the older engines and carriages out on the line awaiting their own TCL. We were keen to try the ride on the steam train, but when we went on November 27th we learned that the last date for a train ride was November 3rd. However, the friendly and very helpful staff told us that next day there was to be a large organised visit and a train journey had been arranged for that group, and if we wished to come back then, we could tag along. So we went back on the 28th and had an absolutely brilliant day. As well as the incredible steam train ride, we also had a ride on an old tram and were given a demonstration of the machine tools in action. It was a truly memorable experience and I would not have missed it for the world. And the price is unbelievable - 6€ each! ( without the train ride it would have only been 3€). Don't miss it!
10. Pasai Donibane

Reviewed By AlbertSalichs - Manresa, Spain
Pasai Donibane is a little fisher town located close to Donostia/San Sebastian, in Gipuzkoa Region, in Basque Country. It is one of the villages of Pasajes/Pasaia and it is the most beautiful of them. In fact, in the village, you can see some churches, the house of Victor Hugo and the main square (very nice old place with some bars and restaurants to eat or drink something in the terrace) and walk around the coast line until almost the lighthouse. From this walk, you can see great views of the bay, really wonderful. Also, from the village, you can see Pasajes de San Pedro located in front of the bay (very beautiful views) and you can go by boat to the other side, very nice little excursion.
