San Sebastián is the world's gastronomic capital — more Michelin stars per capita than anywhere else on Earth, and the old town's pintxos bar culture is the heart of a food paradise. La Concha beach is Europe's most beautiful urban beach, Monte Igueldo's view is a postcard image, and Basque culture makes Donostia a uniquely European city experience.
