Most visitors to Bilbao are surprised by the city’s lush green spaces and abundance of trees. With its location on the banks of the river Nervión and shielded by the surrounding hills, Bilbao is a city that enjoys a temperate climate all year round.
This makes it the perfect city to explore on foot, and with its many parks, gardens and squares, there’s no shortage of places to relax and take in the view. A stroll along the riverbank is a must, and the Guggenheim Museum is a must-see for art lovers.
One of the best ways to enjoy the city is to take a dip in the river. There are a few places where you can do this, but the best place to take a swim is at the Zurutuza beach, located just a few minutes’ walk from the city centre. Although it’s not a sandy beach, Zurutuza is a great spot to take a dip, relax in the sun and enjoy the views of the city.
If you’re looking for somewhere to stay in Bilbao, consider choosing a hotel with a pool. Not only will this help you to cool down on a hot day, but it will also give you the opportunity to relax and enjoy the views of the city.
