February is the perfect time to plan activities for groups, schools and companies on the coast of Gipuzkoa. At Begi Bistan, we design year-round experiences that combine rowing, nature and culture, always adapted to the profile and objectives of each group.
From Orio and Zumaia, we offer activities that allow participants to truly understand and experience the territory, going beyond superficial tourism.
Orio – Group experience in a traditional trainera: rowing and teamwork
The group experience in a traditional trainera in Orio is especially suitable for groups and companies. Rowing requires coordination, communication and shared decision-making — values directly linked to effective teamwork.
The activity takes place at Arraunetxe (Orio), a reference centre for rowing in Gipuzkoa, guided by professional skippers and rowers. The programme is adapted to the characteristics of each group.

Water activities in Orio for groups, schools and companies
Orio is a strategic location for water activities on the coast of Gipuzkoa. We work with schools, companies and organised groups, adapting each proposal to age and objectives.
Oria River descent by kayak or SUP
An activity that combines nature, local history and physical movement, especially suitable for school groups and educational programmes.
Trainera: discovering the history of rowing from within
A participatory experience to understand the history of rowing in the Basque Country, guided by experienced rowers.
Arraunpote on Big SUP
A relaxed social activity for adult groups and companies, combining rowing and local atmosphere.
Kayak and SUP rental in Orio

We also offer kayak and SUP rental in Orio, either as an independent activity or combined with other experiences. Ideal for small groups or leisure time by the river.
Ura Mugimenduan: environmental education on the water
Ura Mugimenduan is an educational experience developed around the Oria River, where participants become active agents in environmental care.

Through a route in community boats and a walking section along the riverbank, groups take part in waste collection, environmental observation and sustainability activities. It is the evolution of the former Behoria Garbia programme, adapted to the current educational curriculum. It is mainly aimed at schools, but can also be adapted for companies interested in sustainability and social responsibility.
Boat tours in the Basque Coast Geopark (Gipuzkoa)
From Zumaia, we organise guided boat tours in the Basque Coast Geopark, one of the most important geological sites in Europe. These tours allow visitors to understand the flysch formations and their natural context.
Walking routes and guided tours along the coast of Gipuzkoa
In addition to water-based activities, we offer walking routes and guided tours in different coastal towns:
- Guided routes through the Zumaia flysch
- Walking tours in Orio, Zarautz and other coastal villages
- Itineraries combining nature, geology, history and local culture

Winter months are ideal to enjoy these experiences in a calmer and more immersive way.
