Getari is not far from Donostia, just over 10 minutes along the high speed, this is a good place to surf. In summer, you can see many young people in Europe driving RVs, parked all over the street, holding a surfboard for a week. So there will be a lot of great guys in summer. Everyone knows the first man to sail around the world, Fernando de Magellan. In 1519, Magellan completed the first human voyage around the world, funded by the King of Spain. When the fleet passed through the Philippines in 1921, Magellan died in a conflict with local tribes. The remaining sailors, led by Juan Sebastian Elcano, inherited Magellan's mission to continue westward and eventually return to Europe. Getaria is the hometown of Juan Sebastian Elcano.
