La Concha Beach

La Concha Beach is consistently ranked among Europe's finest urban beaches, and once you set eyes on its perfect crescent bay, you'll understand why. This stunning 1,350-meter stretch of golden sand is framed by the elegant Paseo de La Concha promenade, Monte Urgull, and Monte Igueldo, creating a picture-perfect setting that has attracted royalty and celebrities for over a century. The calm, shallow waters make it ideal for swimming and safe for families, while the beach's Belle Époque architecture and manicured gardens add a touch of sophistication rarely found at seaside destinations. Guests staying at Casa Zurriola Beach - Surf, eat and relax! will find La Concha just a pleasant 15-minute stroll along the waterfront, offering a completely different beach experience from Zurriola's surf scene. While Zurriola delivers Atlantic waves and surfer vibes, La Concha provides sheltered, tranquil waters perfect for leisurely swimming, sunbathing, and paddling. The beach is impeccably maintained with showers, changing rooms, and sunbed rentals available during summer months. Arrive early during peak season (July-August) to secure a good spot, as this beloved beach draws both locals and tourists. The promenade is perfect for evening strolls with stunning sunset views, and you'll find excellent pintxos bars and restaurants just steps from the sand. Don't miss climbing up to Monte Igueldo for panoramic views of the bay, or taking a boat trip to Santa Clara Island in the middle of the bay during summer months.
