Would you like to join us in GuipĂșzcoa? Located in the Basque Country, in the north of Spain, this province offers a beautiful coastline full of spectacular beaches which, as you know, are bathed by the Cantabrian Sea. And although in autumn and winter bathing is not highly recommended, especially because of the low water temperatures, it is well worth visiting this marvellous coastline.

Today on this website we would like to show you five of the best beaches in GuipĂșzcoa. We apologise in advance for the wonderful beaches we have left out. Would you like to join us?
