Sondika (Spanish, Sondica) is a town and municipality located in the province of Biscay, in the Autonomous Community of Basque Country, northern Spain.^[2]

Situated directly south of the runway of Bilbao Airport, it is the location of Bilbao British Cemetery, containing a Commonwealth War Graves Cemetery with 58 casualties (not to be confused with a far larger municipal cemetery in neighbouring Derio).
