La Concha Beach

I suggest arriving at La Concha Beach around 9 AM to snag a good spot before it gets crowded. The sunsets are also stunning, so if you can, stay until after 8 PM for a breathtaking view

My advice is to check the tidal schedule. It makes a big difference, especially if you're planning to go paddleboarding. Sometimes, the beach can feel really different with high vs. low tide.

Don't waste your money on overpriced beach club loungers! There are plenty of free spots on the sand and the vibe is just as good. Just bring your own towel and soak up the sun.
Etxebarria Park

I recommend visiting in the late afternoon, around 5 PM, when the sun sets. The views of the city are just gorgeous!

Check out the café within the park for some cheap snacks, but don’t expect fancy service. I think it’s worth it for a quick break.

Don’t forget to wear comfy shoes! I thought I could manage with sandals, but the paths are uneven and I ended up with sore feet

If you like to walk, I suggest exploring the trails away from the main areas—they're way quieter and you're likely to find some real hidden gems!
Dona Casilda Iturrizar Park

Look for the pretty little bridges and sculptures scattered around. Some really cool photo ops! I got a few great pics that I wouldn’t have found without wandering a bit

I suggest wearing comfortable shoes. The paths are nice, but you'll want to stroll around and explore, and who wants sore feet ruining their fun?
Bring some snacks and grab a blanket – the park is perfect for a little picnic under the trees. It saves money because there's not a ton of food options right by the park.

If you're bringing kids, the playground area is small but charming – just make sure to keep an eye on them as it's next to the water. Such a lovely spot though!
Europa Park

I recommend visiting on a weekday rather than the weekend if you can. The lines are way shorter, and you’ll get to enjoy more rides without the wait.

I think the food prices inside the park can be a bit high, so it’s smart to pack some snacks or a water bottle. It'll save you some euros, trust me

My advice is to download the park's app. It really helps with finding your way around and checking wait times for rides, making your experience way smoother.
Jardines de Albia Gardens

I recommend bringing a packed lunch or some snacks! There aren't many affordable food options right nearby, so having your own will save you cash and let you enjoy the gardens a bit longer

Don't forget to explore the surrounding streets after your visit. I missed out on some great local shops because I only stuck to the gardens. Take an hour to wander – you won't regret it!

I think it's a good idea to check around for free events or concerts in the park before your visit. I stumbled upon one, and it made my experience so much more lively!

I'd suggest visiting in the early morning around 9 AM. The gardens are less crowded, and the light is perfect for photos. Plus, you can enjoy the peaceful atmosphere before the hustle and bustle starts.
Zarautz Beach

If you wanna dodge the crowded beach, try getting there before 10 AM. It’s super chill in the morning and you can grab a nice spot without fighting for space. Plus, the sunrise views are stunning!
Mundaka Beach

I suggest hitting the beach in the morning around 9 AM to snag a good spot before the crowds roll in. I did that and it made all the difference!

My advice is to bring your own snacks and drinks, as the beach cafe can be a bit pricey. I made the mistake of not doing this and ended up spending way more than I wanted.
Playa de Sopelana

I recommend hitting the beach early, like around 9 AM. It's way less crowded, and you can snag a good spot with stunning views. Plus, the waves are calmer for beginners!
my advice is to pack a picnic instead of buying food at the beach. there are nice grassy areas to chill, and i found the beach restaurants to be a bit pricey!
