Pictures of Ondarreta beach in San Sebastian in Spain show rows and rows of small, blue and white striped canvas tents. What are they? Changing booths, or what? Are they found elsewhere in Spain? How do they reflect the Spanish (or perhaps Basque?) character? For example, didn't Picasso do some paintings of them? Any observations would be much appreciated.
There are two pictures on Wikimedia Commons (search for "Ondarreta"), but if you have problems, send me a message and I'll give you the links.

They are used for changing clothes,...when you finish your bath, you can take off your swimming suit and get your clothes on.
They are also used in Santander (Sardinero Beach), and they were more used long time ago, when seeing someone else naked was something awfull....and it goes more with the basque culture than with the spanish....don't really know if picaso painted them or not, sorry....
but Juan Jose de Garay did:

Valencia : not in simple terms are there lots of seashores interior sight, yet there are additionally lots of Museums and different sights interior the city centre if the climate should not be stable for the sea coast. the city has seen tens of Million Euros properly worth of investment and advancements over the previous couple of years simply by being the ecu city of subculture and web hosting the Grand prix and u . s . a .'s cup there. - regardless of the incontrovertible fact that, i've got under no circumstances been to San Sebastian so take my assessment with a pinch.
