OTHER COMMENTS
I spent the last summer in Zarautz at the campground. The thing was that it was really crowed, but they told us that there are a lot of camping places nearby. The people were nice and helpful. Nightlife is ok, too, people start to get out like 12 o´clock. If you want to borrow a board you can do it at the Pukas shop.

There is a nice camping place, 8 minutes away from the spot. But in the city there are lot of other chances to stay in a youth hostel, hotel etc. WE got to know that there are special offerts from rainboytours and that their camp is near the campingplace were we stayed in. If you travell with them you´ll have the chance to learn the surf and borrow the boards.
