camping and parking spots
spain
donostia city parking tips
- do not go into the city
- do not go into the city after 5
- if you have to go into the city, park near the sagues skate-parkea
- if you need to park for longer, go to monteo udal kiroldegia
spain
wild camping is technically not allowed, but there are some spots that frequently have vans staying overnight. if a spot has vans in it, it is most likely fine. if it is empty, there is probably a reason.

San Vicente de la Barquera
@threedaysco
Up the hill near Gerra beach and Yepah! bar, there are some fields where you can pay 10 euro to stay the night, and have easy access to the beach.

Cape Higuer Lighthouse
@threedaysco
awesome secret camping spot, very lowkey, go down a slightly sketchy steep dirt road and you get private parking with lots of trailheads under a dramatic lighthouse, with private beaches :)
