Spain has over 5,000 miles of coastline, much of which is graced with beautiful beaches. Though the tourists flock to the Costa Blanca and the Costa del Sol, there are beautiful beaches all over Spain (well, where there's coastline, anyway!). See below for the best beaches in Spain.

1. La Concha Beach, San Sebastian

La Concha is one of the best city beaches in Europe, let alone Spain. Situated in the north-east corner of Spain, near the western end of the border with France, San Sebastián is a chic coastal city with excellent Pintxos (the Basque name for tapas) and one of the nicest beaches you'll ever get in a city.

In a 20minutos.es survey, the Basque Country scored just 11%, despite being home to the beaches of San Sebastian, presumably because, apart from those in San Sebastian, most of the beaches in the Basque Country are quite ugly.
