Biarritz Travel Forum

I shall be arriving in Biarritz on the 10th September mid afternoon and need to get to St Etienne-de Baigorry to begin my walk on part of the GR10 trail. Can you suggest a train or bus route that will help.

I am planning to be in the Biarritz-Bayonne area for 3 days in mid September.

I will have to be at the airport at about7:45 0n a weekday for my 9:00 flight.
I can stay in either town. Which town is closer and easier to get to the airport by bus?

I was in Biarritz several years ago. I ate at the great Mexican restaurant, but had difficulty finding inexpensive restaurants. Are there any?

merci

On Aug 16 we arrive to the airport in Biarritz and rent a car. I am driving towards Bordeaux and quite apprehensive about getting out of Biarritz. I've checked Google Maps and have bought a map. Nevertheless, some advice would be much appreciated as I'll have 2 young girls and don't want to get lost. Thanks.

Hey,

2 Irish guys (28) coming over to Biarritz for a week in June. Any recommendations on whether we should stay in Biarritz or Anglet? We're not big surfers but intend to do a little and just want to be by the sea. Also, Any recommendations on accommodation on the beach in either location? Not studio apartments.

Cheers

I'm hoping to go on a girls' holiday to Biarritz at the end of April, but a bit worried that as it will be out of season things will be a bit quiet, or even shut? Does anyone know? We'd be looking to take full advantage of the nightlife - clubs, bars and restaurants...Also, what about the weather? A bit hit and miss?

Thanks for your help!

I will be in Biarritz for a week from 1 October mainly to surf and have some questions as I've never been there:
- Will it still be warm enough to go to the beach? I know it's impossible to answer this question as the weather could be bad, but if anyone could give me a general idea...
- Any good tips for friendly bars/places to hang out and meet other travellers/friendly people
- Good tips for clubs?
- If anyone from VT's gonna be there at that time do they want to meet up for a beer or something?

Would apreciate any tips really.

Hi.
I am contemplating a trip to Biarritz in the first week of October and my questions are as follows:
1. Is the surf still good in October or is it usually too rough/cold
2. Is the nighlife very expensive?
3. Any recommended friendly bars where I'm likely to meet people? I'll be travelling alone.
4. Anyone gonna be there around that time anf fancy a cheeky biere?

i have to stay in biarritz the night before my flight. is the airport open all night or will i have to book into a hostel?if so could u reccomend a hostel near the airport?

hi all,

e were in collioure in summer 2005 and loved it. in 2007 we will be in the pyrenees-atlantiques for the tour de france, and afterwards we are thinking about a week at biarritz, st-jen de luz, or hendaye.

the one concern i have is the weather, and the water temperatures. at the end of july, what can one expect to water temperature to be at the cote basque beaches?

ans how reliable is the sunshine, in general?

if water temperature can be expceted to be considerably warmer, and sunshine considerably more reliable, we might revise our beach plan and head back to the cote vermeille instead of the cote basque.

thanks in advance for your time and advice,

I need to get from Paris to Biarritz (or as close to it as possible) in March 07 by bus/coach and am having difficulties finding a service that will allow me to do this. I cannot travel with Busabout (as it is out of their season) or with Ze Bus (as this would take days) and National Express Eurolines also won't let me.
Any advice would be appreciated

I would appreciate any advice on places to buy surfing related gear, especially clothing for in and out of the water.

Hi everyone,we are on our way to Biarritz. What should we not miss in our travels. Is the Bordeaux wine festival worth attending? We have a car so travelling along the coast is not a problem. Biarritz looks beautiful.

Hi there. Can anyone please tell me if there is an intercity bus between Biarritz in France and Bilbao in Spain. Thanks a lot.

Hi all,

Flying to see the family in San Sebastian and I was wondering if anyone knew if there are any regular buses that run from Biarritz to Hendaye so as I can link up with the "Toppo" train there. I know there is a direct bus service but this only runs twice a day and I dont want to waste any valuable Keler and pintxo time waiting around!!

Very grateful for any hints!!
