This is Conde Nast’s #2 Best City in the World!

San Sebastian is a MUST for any foodie and lover of beautiful coastal cities and architecture. I had the pleasure of having a little girls trip here with some of my closest friends last year and it’s a place I think about constantly.

San Sebastian, Spain

🫒 1hr flight from Barcelona, 1hr bus from Bilbao

🫒 FOODIE HEAVEN. Mostly popular for their PINTXOS, there are over 200 bars that specialize in mostly 1 dish. HEAVEN! This city is also known to have the most Michelin stars per square mile (a total of 16 as of 2024).

🫒 BEAUTIFUL ARCHITECTURE. It’s one thing to do a pintxos bar crawl and have the most amazing dishes, but to do so in the most decorated alleys in Spain. Amazing.

🫒 BEAUTIFUL COAST. Not to mention the location - Beach of La Concha is one of the prettiest coasts I’ve seen while traveling. The view from Igueldo is a must-see.

Is San Sebastian on your list?
