East San Sebastian Ebike Tour

East San Sebastian Ebike Tour

Discover how the sea has shaped the Basque people’s way of life, their economy, and cultural identity throughout history. This experience leads you from San Sebastian to the historic port of Pasajes.

It’s a fascinating journey into a seafaring legacy that once took Basque sailors as far as the shores of Iceland and Canada — a heritage that still echoes in our customs and maritime traditions today.
