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

Cannot speak about the sunbathing/swimming experience but the walk on the promenade is just fabulous. We walked up to the harbor, enjoyed the views of the sea, looked at countless boats... There is a plethora of cafes and restaurants with outside seating along the Paseo de Bidasoa to sample some pintxos with a glass of Rioja.

I enjoyed two months in a wonderful community. Basque people are great. They are fine cooks, artisans, fisherman and hosts. Hondarribia offers beauty on every corner along with a bus stop, bakery, cafe or bar.

This is a truly magnificent beach and not just for surfies of which there are many. It is dog friendly and our dog adores going in the water. It’s a long was down the 400+ steps from the campsite but totally worth it.

The geological formation here is world famous and will intrigue and fascinate even those not familiar with the geological significance. The stratified sedimentary beds are a flysch that arose in a foreland basin at the time of the tectonic convergence of Iberian and European plates that gave rise to the Pyrenees. Game of Thrones fans will recognize the setting as Dragonstone (I had to have this explained to me). The beach is broad and the sea water shallow for a considerable distance.
