San Sebastian, once again recognised as the number one in the world
San Sebastian is the epicentre of luxury travel and gastronomy
The prestigious Forbes magazine has just named it as one of the best destinations to travel to in 2024 and the demanding readers of 'Condé Nast Traveler' have selected it as the best city in the world to eat in 2023.
Once again San Sebastian is recognised at the highest level as a tourist and gastronomic destination. But that's not all, as Tripadvisor has once again chosen Playa de la Concha as one of the best beaches in the world. Its users have been selecting it for years.
San Sebastian shines with its own light. In the prestigious Condé Nast Traveler's Readers' Choice Awards and with an impressive 96.67 satisfaction rating, this Gipuzkoan gem has become the epicentre of luxury travel and haute cuisine.
San Sebastian is described as a coastal city that has it all. From the opportunity to sample the famous pintxos in the Parte Vieja to relaxing on the beautiful Concha Beach or experiencing the surfing culture of the Gros neighbourhood during the day. You can also take in the breathtaking views from the top of Monte Igueldo, the city's best viewpoint and an experience that has endured since the days when Queen Maria Cristina frequented it in the late 19th century.
But what really stands out in San Sebastian is its impressive culinary prowess. Described as "the gastronomic capital of Spain", the city offers exceptional seafood and fish, Michelin-starred restaurants - 16 in total - as well as Soles Repsol award-winning restaurants, legendary pintxos and a cheesecake that is a real dream come true. Gourmet travellers from all over the world make a pilgrimage to San Sebastian to enjoy these culinary delights.
What makes it stand out from other culinary destinations is also the authenticity of the destination, what makes it truly unique is that both chefs, recipes and products are KM0, thus maintaining the authenticity and sustainability of the destination.
Join the elite travellers and discover the gastronomic charm of San Sebastian, a place where haute cuisine and coastal beauty merge to create a unique experience.
