Euskal Herria: the País Vasco & Navarra
The Costa Vasca
West from San Sebastián, both road and rail run inland, following the Río Oria, then towards the coast at Zarautz, some 20km from San Sebastián. From here on, the Costa Vasca is glorious – a rocky and wild coastline, with long stretches of road hugging the edge of the cliffs – all the way to Bilbao. The hillsides, particularly around Getaria, are also famous for the production of txakoli, a fizzy wine popular in the summer. The farther you go, the less developed the resorts become.
