Coast of Spain 🇪🇸 Getaria to Bilbao | Basque Country

Starting in Getaria, we head west to the surf town of Bilbao in Basque Country, Spain. Filmed in August 2024. Getaria is a town on the Urola coast, in the province of Gipuzkoa, in the autonomous community of the Basque Country, in northern Spain. It borders Zarautz to the east and Zumaia to the west. Getaria is well-known for being the hometown of Juan Sebastián Elcano: a sailor famous for being the first to circumnavigate the world. He was the captain of the Nao Victoria, the only ship in Magellan's ill-fated fleet to complete the voyage. Today, Getaria is also famous for its restaurants that serve grilled fish and white wine with a Denomination of Origin somewhere in the Getariako Txakolina near the town. The town is also home to the Cristobal Balenciaga Museum. In May 2012, a two-man team from Getaria won Google's 'Model Your Town' competition by creating a complete 3D representation of their home town. Etymology Traditionally, the name of the city was written as Guetaria. Since 1980, however, the official toponym has been Getaria, which is an adaptation of the modern Basque orthography. Thus, in Spanish it is written Guetaria, and in Basque, although pronounced the same way, it is written Getaria. Apart from Getaria in Gipuzkoa, there is another town 61 kilometres up the coast in Lapurdi (Labourd), in the French Basque Country, which is called Guéthary in French, but the Basque pronunciation and spelling of the two towns is the same. Both towns are located on the Basque coast, and throughout history many have sought the origin of the towns' names. The most convincing hypothesis, based on archaeological evidence, is that the name of Getaria comes from the Latin word "cetaria". In classical Latin, pronounced [ketaria], it means "a place where fish is preserved". Indeed, evidence of Roman fish canneries has been found in both places. Another possible origin of the name is the Gascon word "guaita", which means "lookout". During the Middle Ages, several villages on the Basque coast were colonised by the Gascon people, and among these villages were both Getarias. [It has therefore been suggested that Getari could be the result of a mixture of "guaita" and "-ari": a suffix used in the Basque language to denote professions and meaning watchman. For others, however, the name Getaria comes from a mixture of "guaita" and "-erri", which means town, creating a word that means the town of the watchman. Another possible origin of the name is "guaita" in the Gascon language which means "lookout". During the Middle Ages, various villages on the Basque coast were colonized by Gascons, and among these villages both Getarias could be found.[citation needed] Therefore, it was believed that Getari could be the result of a mix between "guaita" and "–ari": a suffix that is used in the Basque language for professions and means vigilante. For others, though, the name of Getaria results from the mix of "guaita" and "–erri", meaning town, creating a word that means the town of the vigilant. Geography The municipality of Getaria occupies part of the central coast of Gipuzkoa, in the Cantabrian Sea. This stretch of coast is made up of a steep cliff where erosion has created a series of coves and points. The historic quarter of Getaria is located between the mainland and Mount San Antón, known as the Mouse of Getaria because of its mouse-like shape. This mountain, which characterises the town, was an island until the 16th century. In the interior of the municipality is Mount Garate (278 m). It runs parallel to the coast and on its smooth slopes are several farms belonging to the municipality of Getaria. These farms, called baserri, are typical of the Basque Country. Almost all the land between Garate and the coast is covered with vineyards, due to the microclimate that this area generates. History The beginnings of a village in what is now Getaria could have been found in Roman times, as evidenced by the discovery of an "ace" from the earlier pre-imperial period, 2 BC. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Getaria...
