Although northern Spain has a number of beautiful towns and villages, there's one that truly stands out. Hidden away in northern Spain is a small fishing village and town known as one of the region's most beautiful spots. Mundaka, in the Basque Country , renowned for its surfing, is not to be overlooked.
Boasting pretty streets, dazzling landscapes, and a great set of beaches, this destination is a must-visit for 2025. The coastal destination once hosted surfing world championships and offers the perfect conditions for surfers around the world. But besides being the ideal option for watersports fanatics, Mundaka offers a wonderful variety of experiences offering something for everyone.
According to The Olive Press , National Geographic named the town as Northern Spain's most beautiful. The magazine also labelled it as a must-visit for this year whilst highlighting all of its glory, and it has so much. Mundaka's old port area is a place like never seen before - full of colourful Basque homes, small fishing boats and, of course, a lovely sandy beach; it is a perfect spot to go on a walk and explore the enchanting surroundings.
As well as the beach in the old town, Mundaka features a selection of ones both in the town and its surroundings. Laidatxu Beach, stretching 55 metres, is known as one of the best in the town. Its fine golden sand, small bays, and calm water conditions make it a great choice for families with young children.
