Itinerary
This Dragonstone tour from San Sebastian is a relaxed, private journey along the wild Basque Coast, designed for travelers who want to experience the region’s most dramatic landscapes at their own pace, always accompanied by a local guide.
The day begins with a scenic drive to Zumaia, home to Itzurun Beach and its extraordinary flysch cliffs — a geological formation shaped over millions of years by the Cantabrian Sea. These towering limestone layers, rising up to 150 meters above the ocean, are among the most striking coastal landscapes in northern Spain and offer a powerful introduction to the Basque Country’s natural character.
Zumaia also gained worldwide attention as one of the filming locations used to recreate Dragonstone in Game of Thrones. During the series, the beach and the iconic island of San Juan de Gaztelugatxe were combined to bring this fictional setting to life. On this tour, you will visit both real locations, understanding their natural, cultural and cinematic significance beyond the screen.
The experience continues at San Juan de Gaztelugatxe, one of the most iconic spots on the Basque Coast. This dramatic islet is linked to the mainland by a winding stone bridge and a scenic staircase carved into the rock. To reach the chapel at the top, you’ll follow a short but rewarding walk, climbing step by step as the views open up over the Cantabrian Sea.
Once at the summit, the effort is more than worth it. From here, sweeping panoramas stretch along the rugged Basque coastline, creating a moment to slow down, take photographs, and simply enjoy the setting. Deeply rooted in local history and maritime tradition, San Juan de Gaztelugatxe offers a visit that feels as meaningful as it is visually striking.
This private Basque Coast day trip from San Sebastian is ideal for travelers looking to combine nature, culture, and iconic landscapes at a relaxed pace, always accompanied by a knowledgeable local guide.
