Hondarribia
How to get there
Hondarribia it is a town with a population of 14,000 inhabitants located on the east side of the Basque Coast. At the foot of Mount Jaizkibel (the highest on the Cantabrian Coast), bathed in the Cantabrian Sea and the Txingudi Bay (which forms the River Bidasoa estuary), it is in a privileged location that is complemented by its easy access and its condition as a natural frontier with Hendaye in the French Basque Country.
At only 20 minutes away from San Sebastian, at an hour from Bilbao and Pamplona, San Sebastian Airport is situated in Hondarribia from which flights to Madrid and Barcelona depart every day.
By road
The A 8 Bilbao-Behobia motorway, the N-1 and the N-121 coming from Pamplona all lead to Irun. Both towns (Hondarribia and Irun) are adjacent, so we have no difficulty in getting there. Likewise, we have to go through Irun if we want to cross into France by road.
By air
San Sebastian Airport is located in the municipal area of Hondarribia. With daily flights to Madrid and Barcelona, and since flights land directly in the town, it lets us see the town from the air.

Every 15 minutes, a boat leaves the sports port of Hendaye that takes us to Hondarribia by crossing the Txingudi Bay in a few minutes. It is a pleasant and simple way to get to the very centre of the town.
