This was a beautiful boat ride to a small island just off San Sebastián. Well worth 8 euros for a couple of hours of entertainment. The boat ride over was about 25 minutes. We walked around the small island for a bit and then took the next boat back. We had fabulous weather. Definitely worth it on a beautiful day.

Pleasant walk around the bay, allowing to have another perspective of San Sebastian. In good weather, it's worth the cost.

A nice brief time on the water. When you get to the island you can do as little or as much as you want. Very pretty setting.
