Sophie Shoots Surf Shots in San Sebastian

With a little encouragment Soph has taken up the fine art of surf photography, after 2 surfs and some constructive dialogue we have we have chosen the first selection of what will surely be a growing portfolio of work to be published on this fine site. Shots are taken from main beach in San Sebastian.

245 steps to San Juan Hermitage at Dawn

245 steps

Bakio

Liam and I made the 1hr treck from Bakio to St Juan Hermitage, a spritual retreat for sailors built in the 17th century with 245 steps linking the island to the mainland. At the top there is a chapel and hut like shelter with open fire for the sailors to stay during the Basque storms. It was a surreal experience at dawn as there was no one around and with the warm sun rising made for an unforgettable stroll....

A taste of the Basque Country

Been traveling the spanish Basque coast for the last week, a highlight was a 6 night stay in Bakio which was our first real stop of the trip, nice to get to know the locals and town rather than blowing through on a mission to a newer and better place. Its also allows you time to suss out all of the campervan scams (nackers) that one must know on the road - (local sports hall for hot showers, taps for access to drinking water, wifi cafes etc..)

From Bakio we backtracked to San Sebastion, spending a couple nights along the way around the town of Bilbao and the beaches on the coast there. San Seb was great second time round with the town beach offering a few pretty sweet waves. We are now in Zaruatz waiting for the comp to start, Soph was well off the prospect of backtracking for a 'bloody surf comp', but is happy now she has a VIP wrist band..... Groupy I say.
