The seaside town of Biarritz

Biarritz is located on the coast a short distance from the border with Spain.

In the Aquitaine région of France. You can reach the town by a good motorway system.

There is a high speed train service from Paris.

You can fly to the local airport from London and Dublin with Ryanair.

The town has a wide choice of sporting activities riding, walking, subaqua diving, tennis, squash.

There are 10 golf courses in the area. You can get a golf pass to play some of them at a reduced rate.

The town is a world class surfing centre and has several beaches.A Map of the area.

A seal at the Museum of the Sea

The town has some interesting museums a Biarritz history museum at Rue Broquedis 64200 and a chocolate museum.

The chocolate museum is on 14, Avenue Beau Rivage 64200

We liked the Museum of the Sea where you can see seals, sharks etc. Like the seal in the photo

A stone bridge made by sea erosion

A good way to get your bearings is to take a ride on the little train. It takes you round the town centre it runs every 40 mins.

The town centre has been altered to make more pedestrian areas.

There is a covered market at Les Halles open in the mornings we liked the local Basque ham. The town has all the usual shops, cafes, and restaurants. This Guide will give an idea of the cost of eating out in the town. If you would like to stay in Biarritz look at the hotels here for details and prices

If you want to stay at one of the best hotels try the Hotel du Palais which overlooks Biarritz main beaches and the Atlantic ocean

The hotel was the summer mansion of Napoleon III and Empress Eugenia. You can see the hotel in the photo and find more details here
