A nice and undemanding walk without going too far, beautiful views... it's a shame that the old military building and the cannons, machine gun nests, underground galleries that connected everything are not better preserved... but it's worth going!!! From the La Cuesta neighborhood, just before reaching La Arena beach, we parked in a parking lot indicated by signs when entering the neighborhood. We went up a path that we didn't know that goes up the mountain through the mountains (improvisation) and down a paved path that we already knew with views of the Santurtzi Superport.

We are located at the foot of La Arena beach, at La Maloka you can spend an incredible time in a different place with views of a sea that changes every day. Surfer style, wood, nature… Unbeatable views of the beach. Pintxos, terrace with sun, music and a good atmosphere, especially at sunset. Let the golden hour cover you from the glass window of its dining room while you enjoy a milkshake, a soft drink, a beer…
