Magical places like the Balearic Islands, Canary Islands or Ibiza are wonderful to relax while watching one of its magical sunsets, well, in the Basque Country we can also do it, you can choose to enjoy one of these wonders from the top of our mountains or from one of our cliffs, all thanks to our geography. <\/p>\n<p>From our experience we recommend to see them from the cliffs, avoiding this way, the cloudiness that we could have from the top of some emblematic mountain of the Basque Country as the gorbea or hiru erregen mahaia. As you know many of the Basque provinces have incredible cliffs from where we recommend you to enjoy our &#8220;Basque sunsets&#8221;.
