"Great Food, Wine, Beach, what more do I need?" San Sebastián by Roadquill
San Sebastián Travel Guide: 304 reviews and 800 photos
San Sebastian is truly a beautiful city. Even at night the lights shimmering on the water were a sight to be seen.
Sipping on a cold beer and watching the sun set over the harbor ain't a bad way to finish the day. Plus one had to store up some energy for the evening.
What a jewel of a place! A five minute cab ride from the bus station to my hotel and I was ready to relax.
I splurged and took a suite at the Hotel d' Londres overlooking La Concha beach. Off to the right was the harbor.
I only scheduled two days to recuperate from the festivities of the St. Fermin Festival in nearby Pamplona. I should have scheduled two weeks.
