Nature is on display at Cristina Enea Park, where you'll share sprawling lawns with colorful peacocks on parade. If you're in search of even more wildlife, pay a visit to the city's aquarium, where sharks swim overhead in glass tunnels. Art lovers should carve out time for a trip to the San Telmo Museum, which highlights Basque artwork throughout the ages. Looking for some late-night activity? Then make your way to Old Town, where bustling bars stay open late to serve drinks and tapas-like snacks called pintxos, as you dine in the shadow of the Neo-Gothic spires of San Sebastian Cathedral.
The only thing more relaxing than your San Sebastian vacation rental may be a day at the beach. You'll find plenty of lounge chairs for rent and you can bring a picnic to add to your day of leisure. If you're looking for something a bit more adventurous, try your hand at surfing, water skiing, or kayaking. There's also a host of nearby tennis and squash courts for an added workout. Surrounding hillsides offer easy trails and some even feature bars so you can pause for a drink while taking in the view.
San Sebastian is no stranger to rain with the city getting nearly 65 inches each year. You should always pack an umbrella just to be safe but particularly if you've booked a San Sebastian vacation rental between October and January, the region's wettest period. While the city may be damp during the winter, daytime highs average a comfortable 55 degrees. The spring and fall seasons bring mild temperatures in the high 60s, but it's noticeably drier and sunnier in the summer months, when pleasant temperatures typically top out in the high 70s.
San Sebastian is one giant playground for lovers of the great outdoors, as the city's pristine beaches and sparkling blue waters are surrounded by emerald green hillsides. The River Urumea flows through the heart of the city as well, with numerous parks offering waterfront views. It's also just a 30-minute drive to Aiako Harria Nature Reserve, a 17-acre green space set at the foothills of the majestic Pyrenees Mountains and a popular spot in the winter for migrating birds. Connect with nature in the preserve, where mountains and gullies are dotted with babbling brooks and sprawling oak groves.
