Ending at The Comb of the Wind and the Pico del Loro rocky headland, the Antiguo is a neighbourhood with many hidden gems to discover. Ondarreta Beach, with its characteristic white and blue awnings, is the perfect spot for a swim or to stroll along its landscaped seaside promenade to The Comb of the Wind. Mount Igeldo, with its spectacular views and a vintage funfair, rises up above.
Going along Tolosa Avenue or the Matia or Benta Berri streets, which are always busy with people shopping or relaxing in their bars, will take you into the Antiguo neighbourhood. An perfect opportunity to savour the local cuisine and soak up the typical atmosphere of San Sebastian.

Mount Igeldo offers some of the most spectacular views of San Sebastian and of the Bay of Biscay, from where you can look out over the city and part of Gipuzkoa’s coastline. You can take the centenarian funicular railway, which has been running since 1912, up to a vintage funfair that retains the charm of the Belle Époque. You will there be plunged into a fantasy world, with magic carpets, the Swiss Mountain roller coaster overlooking the sea, haunted houses, mazes, and mermaids swimming along a mysterious river. The park’s main features are the Torreón, a historical building that adds a touch of magic, and the lookout point, from where you can take the best shot of the city.

San Sebastian’s seaside promenade ends at The Comb of the Wind, a masterpiece by the sculptor Eduardo Chillida. Its three sculptures, built into the rocks, create a unique visual show, particularly when the waves break and the natural geysers surprise the visitors. It is undoubtedly a must-see.
