Super friendly, helped me pick out a board that worked for me, didn't try to upsell me on renting a…read morewetsuit on a day I didn't need it with my long sleeve suit and board shorts, and there were showers they let me use after, which was super helpful for rinsing the MOUNTAINS of red algae/ kelp / sand out of my suit and shorts after. Also didn't nitpick the time. I only had to put an id down as a deposit and paid for the rental after. It was super easy, like 1.5 blocks away from the beach. I'd use them again if I'm so lucky to be in San Sebastián again one day!

Xabier was responsive and easy to deal with via email, and the instructor they assigned was wonderful, according to my family--very nice, generous with his time, and spoke English. They will loan you everything you need (wetsuit and board) and they have lockers at the school to stow your valuables. Bonus: a hot shower was made available at the end. Can't recommend them enough, as good as it gets!

What a wonderful small city!…read more Super walk-able if you stay in city center. There is so many pinxto restaurants around. We stayed here 2 nights and 3 days, and that was just the perfect amount. I guess another day wouldn't hurt if you want to hit up more pinxto restaurants. We were able to go to the beach, hike, and take the funicular up to view the gorgeous city. If you do the hike, be prepared to spend about 2-3 hours on the trail (pack a snack and lots of water!), depending on your pace; we took the bus back. I suppose you can hike back but we wanted to use our time wisely and bus back. Highly recommend! Oh, and the beach is quasi-nude; you will find a few nudists ;)
