Zumaia is a railway station in Zumaia, Basque Country, Spain. It is owned by Euskal Trenbide Sarea and operated by Euskotren. It lies on the Bilbao-San Sebastián line.
The station opened in 1901 as part of the Zarautz-Deba stretch of the San Sebastián-Elgoibar railway. The line was extended to two years later.[2] The current station building dates from 1926. Originally, it served the Urola railway, with the Bilbao-San Sebastián tracks to the north of it. The Urola railway closed in 1986, and in 1997 the tracks of the Bilbao-San Sebastián line were moved to the position of the former Urola tracks.[3] The viaduct over the Urola river next to the station was the site of a in 1941 that killed 22 people.[4]
The station is served by Euskotren Trena line E1. Trains to and from (in San Sebastián) run every 30 minutes during weekdays, and every hour during weekends. In the other direction (towards Matiko, Bilbao), trains run every hour throughout the week.[5]
