The route includes a view of Santa Clara Island, a space of singular beauty, located at the point where land and sea converge, and in which great natural wealth is concentrated in a small area.

Walk its paths to the Casa del Faro, where the sculpture of Cristina Iglesias Hondalea is located, relax with the flight of the seagulls and enjoy spectacular views of the bay.

In the summer season, the island has a bar, showers, lifeguards... Did you know that the island's beach, which appears and disappears with the tides, is the only south-facing beach in the Basque Country?
