San Sebastian City Info San Sebastian Hotels
 

San Sebastian is located in the northeast of Spain, on the Bay of Biscay. San Sebastian Beach is known as a popular beach resort because of its picturesque coastline. The most popular beach in San Sebastian Spain is La Concha. San Sebastian is a humdrum of boutiques, surf-shops and nightclubs, but the highly structured boardwalk and extravagant historic mansions lend an air of sophistication. You can enjoy a ride on the funicular to the top of Monte Igueldo to get a spectacular view of the sea and countryside. Another attraction is when you stroll through sheltered woods to the summit of Monte Urgull you get to see a statue of Jesus blessing the city. Remarkable primitive Basque artifacts and a few dinosaur skeletons are displayed in the town’s Museo de San Telmo. On the map of San Sebastian you can notice it lies against the Bay of Biscay and is surrounded by green mountains. The weather San Sebastian is the primary reason why people head towards San Sebastian in the summer months as the place allows them an escape route from the inland heat.

Accommodation San Sebastian is the ideal base from where one can explore the Basque Country. A visit to San Sebastian Spain is incomplete without a visit to the old quarter (Parte Vieja). It is here that one will come across a lot of the traditional local life. One can enjoy a god time in the huge number of bars and restaurants found here. The Basilica of Santa Maria del Coro, patron saint of the city is another chief attraction. The other two famous beaches of the region are Ondarreta and La Zurriola. Ondarreta beach at the foot of Mount Igeldo gives you a patrician feel to it because of the villas and gardens that lead to the sand. There are many monuments to explore in the city, such as the Cathedral. The city also offers several parks and gardens. The sunsets in San Sebastian are spectacular, and so is the nightlife. Don’t forget to try some seafood cuisine which is a specialty of the restaurants here.
