Families often find Ondarreta particularly appealing. It's a quieter part of the bay, with plenty of space for children to play and the Miramar Palace gardens nearby for a change of scenery. The area also tends to have hotels with larger rooms and often more facilities suitable for families.

The weather is wonderfully warm and sunny, with average temperatures ranging from 22°C to 26°C, making it ideal for swimming in La Concha Bay or relaxing on Ondarreta Beach.


During these peak months, the city buzzes with activity, and the beaches are at their liveliest.

The long, bright days are great for strolling along the promenade or enjoying an al fresco meal with sea views. Many hotels also offer special summer programmes and amenities during this period.


As another option, June is a great alternative for a beach hotel stay. The weather is still beautifully warm, with temperatures typically between 18°C and 22°C, and the sea is inviting for a swim.
