Ulle Gorri - The Land of the Basques

Winter in Mundaka

Even on days without a big swell, there’s always someone in the water here – chasing that legendary left-hand wave of Mundaka.

Cold Atlantic wind, quiet streets, a sleepy harbour… and out there, a few surfers who just can’t resist paddling out, no matter the season.

When we travel here with our guests, we don’t rush.
We watch the surfers, feel the winter light on the estuary and enjoy this raw, authentic side of the Basque Coast – far away from the crowds.

Our trips are private and tailor-made, so every visit to Mundaka is different… just like every wave.

Would you dare to surf here in January?

Etxalar– A timeless village , tucked away in the lush valleys of the Navarrese Pyrenees .
Etxalar welcomed us with cobbled streets, stone houses, and peaceful charm 🌿

At the churchyard, we found ancient Basque funerary stelae — hilarriak — circular stones carved with stars, moons, and sacred symbols from a pre-Roman tradition

We’re always seeking places like this — authentic, beautiful, full of soul.

Join us as we dive into one of the most breathtaking natural wonders of our land: the majestic Nervión Waterfall 🌊💚. Featured in a video by local TV (EITB), we’ll take you on an adventure just a short walk away from our farmhouse Ulle Gorri!

We often team up with Sergio, an expert ornithologist, to explore the area and discover the incredible birdlife soaring through the canyon during our birdwatching experiences. 🦅🌲

Did you know that Salto del Nervión is Spain's tallest waterfall? 😱 With an impressive 222-meter free fall, the views are simply jaw-dropping! Plus, the surrounding trails offer spectacular hiking experiences for nature lovers. 🗺️✨
