Getxo occupies the right bank of the Bilbao Estuary, where it meets the Cantabrian Sea in Biscay’s Basque Country. The municipality combines the former fishing quarter of Algorta, the residential streets of Neguri, and the beaches of Ereaga and Arrigunaga along its seafront. Its defining landmark is the Vizcaya Bridge, an iron transporter bridge opened in 1893 between Getxo and Portugalete and inscribed on UNESCO’s World Heritage List in 2006. Algorta’s old port retains narrow lanes and a waterfront shaped by the town’s maritime past. Browse additional webcams from the Bilbao Estuary and the Basque coast to extend your view of Getxo.
