Along the Biscay coast, you will find small fishing ports, such as Bermeo, Ea, Ondarroa, and Lekeitio, in addition to tourist towns blessed with fine sand beaches, such as Plentzia, Górliz, Bakio, etc. The Urdaibai Biosphere Reserve is located a few kilometres away from the capital and it is one of the most environmentally diverse areas in the Basque Country, with more than 25 vegetation units and a rich fauna that includes mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, insects, fish, molluscs, and crustaceans. Among other activities, scuba diving, sailing, surfing, canoeing, and boat rides can be enjoyed.

Sports events are another leisure option for visitors, with high-level football, basketball, cycling, rugby, sailing races, surfing, athletics…
And, of course, the typical sports of the Basque Country, which are attractive because they are all spectacular. Basque sports and popular games are very close to traditional everyday activities - work that Basque people used to carry out and that served as leisure and competition amongst neighbours on recreation days: seeing who cuts more grass and more logs, who rows faster... Strength is measured by lifting up large stones, with races carrying weights, tug of war... Or they test the strength of animals - testing oxen that pull stones, rams fighting or sheepdog competitions.
However, the most popular sport is "pelota vasca", with its different specialities such as "pelota a mano", "a pala" or "a cesta-punta", which can be enjoyed on pelota courts in every town, with betting to make the competition more interesting. 더 자세히 보기
