🚗 Parking in Zumaia: Plan Ahead
Our departure point is in the center of Zumaia, and parking spaces are limited—especially during high season. We recommend:
🔹 Option 1 – Cars only
Park at the designated park-and-ride lot and take the scenic shuttle boat across the river to the town center (1 €/person).
🗓️ Available from Easter to September 15.

🔹 Option 2 – Cars and buses
Coming as a group? There are larger parking areas for cars and buses. Please note:
⚠️ Private buses are not allowed in the town center. Drop-off must be at designated bus stops. From there, you’ll walk to the meeting point — but don’t worry, everything is close in Zumaia!
📍 Important:
The shuttle boat does not wait. Be at the Txomin Aguirre pier at least 5 minutes before your scheduled departure.
