Paseo de La Concha : info and guided tour

About Paseo de La Concha

Paseo de La Concha runs along La Concha Bay in San Sebastián, on the city’s waterfront. This seaside promenade, lined by sand and water, offers a direct view of the urban coastline, between beach, bay, and coastal landscape, in an area closely associated with the image of Donostia.

The route follows Kontxa Pasealekua, right next to La Concha Beach. It is part of one of the best-known areas of San Sebastián, where the public space traces the curve of the bay and highlights the views of the sea and the elements of the waterfront.

As a historic site and tourist attraction, Paseo de La Concha is one of the iconic places in Donostia’s urban landscape. Its exact location, at Kontxa Pasealekua, places it at the heart of a popular area known for the close connection between the promenade, seaside heritage, and local identity.

From this waterfront, the promenade lets visitors admire the distinctive geography of La Concha Bay, framed by the city on one side and the open sea on the other. The place is associated with one of the most recognizable panoramas in San Sebastián, in a setting that is both urban and coastal.
