Alderdi Eder Parkea

About

Alderdi Eder Parkea is one of San Sebastián’s most charming and elegant green spaces, unfolding between La Concha Bay and the grand façades of the city centre. Once part of the early 20th‑century urban redesign, the park blends French‑inspired landscaping with a distinctly coastal atmosphere, creating a graceful transition from beach to boulevard. Its manicured lawns, flowerbeds, and iconic tamarisk trees offer a refreshing pause for both locals and visitors, while the ornate carousel adds a nostalgic touch that has become a beloved symbol of the area. From the park’s pathways, the views of the bay shift with the light, making it a favourite spot for leisurely strolls, quiet reading, or simply watching the rhythm of city life. Alderdi Eder remains a timeless meeting point, capturing the elegance and relaxed spirit that define San Sebastián’s seaside identity.
