Zarauz [1] (Basque:Zarautz) is a nice holiday resort in Guipuzcoa province in the Basque Country of northern Spain.

[edit] Get in

It is quite easy to get to Zarauz by different means of transport from the capital of Guipuzcoa province, San Sebastian.

[edit] By train

There is a frequent train, Euskotren [2](usually every 30 minutes), which departs from San Sebastian. Note that this is not the same as the Renfe service which connects San Sebastian with major cities in Spain and France. You need to go to a different station altogether. The journey to Zarauz takes 30 minutes.

[edit] By bus

The Euskotren company also runs buses every hour to Zarauz from San Sebastian. There other buses in summer which arrive in Zarauz from Pamplona.

[edit] By car

It takes 15 mins by car to arrive to Zarauz from San Sebastian by the highway A-8; which connects San Sebastian and Bilbao.

Move along the coast a few miles to the small fishing village of Getaria for wonderful fish restaurants. Everything from grilled sardines, superb turbot to live big crayfish. Well worth a visit.
