My tip“The Euskotren train from Bilbao to Mundaka is lovely; combine it with Gaztelugatxe and Bermeo. The wave is for professionals only.”
A Basque fishing village at the mouth of the Urdaibai Biosphere Reserve, with a small harbor and colorful houses, known worldwide for its long left wave that surfers come to ride.
What to see
The small harbor and colorful houses · the Santa Catalina hermitage overlooking the estuary · the church and the seafront · the Urdaibai estuary and its sands · nearby Bermeo and San Juan de Gaztelugatxe
Easy to reach
A train from Bilbao (an hour and a half) or 40 minutes by car. The village is small and slightly sloping; two hours.
