Discover three coastal gems on a Hondarribia, San Juan, and San Pedro tour from San Sebastian that blends border history, Atlantic scenery, and seafaring flavour.
Begin with Hondarribia, a walled town that preserves the elegance of its historic centre. Explore the La Marina district, which displays colourful painted wooden balconies. On the banks of the Bidasoa, you’ll grasp its strategic character and maritime tradition as your guide shares anecdotes and local tips.
The route climbs Mount Jaizkibel for panoramic views of the Basque coastline and continues to the Bay of Pasaia, a natural amphitheatre where the villages of San Juan (Pasai Donibane) and San Pedro keep their charm of stone houses, narrow lanes, and grill-fish taverns. Follow in Victor Hugo’s footsteps and, if conditions allow, cross the estuary by boat with your camera ready for the best shots.
With a bilingual guide, comfortable transport from San Sebastian, and mid-sized groups that ensure attentive service, this experience is designed for those seeking an agile, cultural, and highly photogenic plan. Enjoy a day trip from San Sebastian that condenses heritage, viewpoints, and maritime life before returning to Donostia with the sea salt still on your skin.
