About San Sebastián

San Sebastián curls around La Concha, widely considered one of Europe's most beautiful urban beaches, its shell-shaped bay framed by green hills on either side. The city punches enormously above its weight in food, with a historic old town packed with pintxos bars and more Michelin stars per capita than almost anywhere else in the world. It's the rare destination that satisfies beach lovers and serious food travelers in equal measure, all within a compact, walkable city.
