7Playa de la Concha, Spain
Yes, another Spanish beach is one of the best in Europe. Playa de la Concha is located in San Sebastian, Basque Country.
Here, the water is clean, the sand is fine and you have the city right behind you.
Not to mention, San Sebastian is home to the region’s best ‘pintxos’, which is the Basque name for ‘tapas’.
The beach received mixed reviews, such as these ones: ‘The San Sebastian bay is gorgeous and this beach has the lovely traditional amenities that make it so charming. Very well protected from winds too. A must see!’
‘The Concha beach is a beautiful place but is packed with people, you can’t walk calmly on the sand because you’ll have to be jumping sunbathers and avoiding getting hit by a volleyball.
Have in consideration that Spanish people all go to the beach on July and August and imagine a whole peninsula of people trying to align themselves in the whole perimeter of the peninsula.’
