The Playa de la Concha stop will let you discover one of the most beautiful and well-known areas of the city. Located at one end of the Bahía de la Concha, from this place you can admire both the beach and the hills Urgull and Igeldo.
This urban beach is almost a mile long. A privileged place for swimmers, rowing races and fantastic to admire the firework show during the local celebration of “Semana Grande”. In fact, it is considered one of the best beaches of Europe and the world.
In the heart of Playa de la Concha you can find La Perla. Although it has suffered various changes, the building is still a luxurious wooden spa built in 1912 as a recreation center for the aristocracy. Let’s not forget that at the beginning of the 20th century San Sebastian was the summer retreat of the Royal Family.

Another iconic part of this area is the white handrail that divides the beach from the promenade. A work by Juan Rafael Alday that helps create a perfect harmony between the city and the sea.
