3 days in San Sebastian: 42 Pintxos and we want more

Day 1: Explore + Pintxos Tour

Breakfast: Mesón Matin, https://maps.app.goo.gl/vNKu6JujR9MsU...

Lunch: Restaurant Nestor, start queuing up at 11:30/11:45 around, otherwise the queue will be too long. Eat Steak, Pimientos de Padron, Tomatos

Dinner: Pintxos tour https://www.airbnb.com/experiences/24...

That's what we did there:

Jose Mari: https://maps.app.goo.gl/6kxZ942wn1TLn...
- Gilda, Mini Squid, Sausage

Bartolo: https://maps.app.goo.gl/wqqWBRdf56HsV...
- Foie Gras, Braised Beef

Txakolina: https://maps.app.goo.gl/tCpgWvVg97ZxS...

Day 2:

Breakfast Pintxos: Bar Goritti https://maps.app.goo.gl/tCpgWvVg97ZxS... Next to the market

Afterwards we did an E-Bike tour, but I would not recommend it. Instead I would recommend to sign up for PBSC App and get one of the E-Bikes. Then ride to the end of the beach and enjoy the view. Also hike the little mountain for a great view: https://maps.app.goo.gl/L76iW1ez6kqev...

Dinner: https://maps.app.goo.gl/t7fV1w3YqMa2N... - Try the grilled octopus (Pulpo Parilla), its well worth it.

Day 3:

Breakfast: Maiatza https://maps.app.goo.gl/4dLFibaKszLyp...
Amazing Breakfast, so busy with eating breakfast that I didn't make much of any videos there. 🤤

Tour around the Santa Clara Island, costs 7€, book it here: https://maps.app.goo.gl/6eUeKpKcDVWnK... then hike up Santa Clara Island

Aftwards we borrowed a bike and did ride to the last bike station and walked to the funicular. Although its really only happy time for children up there. I didn't find it particularly spectacular up there, its a great view, but that's about it.

For Dinner try some pintxos:

Fish Foie Gras at https://maps.app.goo.gl/Vwom1MPN3Xwpt...

Anchovies at https://maps.app.goo.gl/BbkrEZhrk1c1R... (I was a bit disappointed, very touristy, however, it has a stunning 4,7 stars on google, and the quality wasn't bad at all)

Awesome Anchovy and Sea Urchin Mousse at Bar Sport https://maps.app.goo.gl/dNkZFfkAGpeQL...

Braised Ribs at Betijai Berria (the Pintxos were a bit dry, but the ribs I found to die for): https://maps.app.goo.gl/bFfRhMUXqj2sS...

And yes, the Cheesecake at La Vina is really good (https://maps.app.goo.gl/9MeEBcZ2XJ5uh...) however, its not that much better than all the others we tried. But, since its the original, you should try.

Day 4 we went two times to Bar Goritti.

The market is hidden right next to it underground. There's one lady which is selling a ton of Anchovies. It's really deluxe and I would recommend it.

For the tech-nerds: The video was made using an Iphone 15 pro and the Blackmagic Camera App. Editing in Adobe Premiere.

I hope you may find this helpful.
