Bakio Beach
Bakio
A golden sand bay on the way to Gaztelugatxe, popular for surfing and summer swimming. It is also part of the Basque txakoli white wine region.
Bakio is one of the longest beaches on the Biscay coast, about 1 km in length. Its waves are consistent, and surf schools operate here year-round. The hills around the town are the main production area for Basque txakoli, a lightly sparkling white wine, and the Txakolingunea wine museum is located here. From Bakio, the coastal road runs about 5 km east to San Juan de Gaztelugatxe, and the two are often visited together. From Bilbao, take Bizkaibus line A3518, a journey of about one hour.
