Zumaia’s Flysch is hugely spectacular and simply enlightening.

Begin your morning by walking through the deep and tranquil formations of the seaside Flysch cliffs: the scenery depicts an episode of Game of Thrones, yet it is a natural work of art, with infinite geological value, we call it “an open book.” A demonstration of Earth’s evolution, 66 million years to be exact!

Normally this attraction doesn’t draw too much attention, besides the seagulls of course. The Flysch tour has not ceased to surprise its viewers since minute 1.

Which village has the best grilled fish in the world? Getaria. In the whole world you say? In a small particular coastal town minutes away from San Sebastian? Yes. And if you don’t believe us, come have a look for yourself, we will take you along the narrow village streets, lined with open grills facing the spectators.

The first man to successfully circumnavigate the world, Portuguese Captain Magellan, right? Nope, it was Juan Sebastián Elcano, Basque sailor from Getaria! We tend to spend some time enlightening guests with the crazed adventure of Elcano, who arrived to navigate his way around the world. Don’t worry, it’s a fun conversation, you won’t fall asleep.

Cristobal Balenciaga was also born here. Anything else you might think? Of course! Tiny narrow streets filled with small delicatessen shops, and txakoli of course. Did anybody say Txakoli?
