Guetaria Attractions 
At Zarauz begins the Cornisa Cantábrica (Cantabrian Corniche), a magnificent road running close to the rocky coast. The fishing port of Guetaria is picturesquely situated on a promontory, its harbor sheltered by the fortified island of San Antonio, which is connected with the mainland by a causeway.
Below the 13th century Gothic church of San Salvador lies the harbor, with attractive fish restaurants.

Juan Sebastián Elcano
From the lighthouse at the tip of the promontory there are fine views. In the town's main street stands a tall monument (1922) to the navigator Juan Sebastián Elcano (1487-1526), a native of Guetaria, who ended his circumnavigation of the globe in his home town.
Town Hall
In the Town Hall are frescoes by Zuloaga (1922) depicting Elcano's voyage round the world.
Zumaia - Zuloaga Museum
At the entrance to the town is the Villa Zuloaga, built by the painter Ignacio Zuloaga (1870-1945) on the ruins of the 12th century monastery of Santiago Echea. His house is now a museum, which displays the artist's collection, including works by El Greco, Zurbarán and Goya.
