Bayonne Old Town (Day Trip)
15 Rue Montaut, Bayonne, 64100, France
Bayonne is the Basque capital and Biarritz's historic neighbour — a fortified medieval city 8km inland where half-timbered houses line the Nive River, the Gothic cathedral (Cathédrale Sainte-Marie, UNESCO-listed as part of the Camino de Santiago) dominates the skyline, and the Musée Basque provides the most comprehensive introduction to Basque culture in France.
Biarritz Chocolate & Bayonne
Avenue de Biarritz, Bidart, 64200, France
The Basque Country has been making chocolate since the 17th century — Sephardic Jews fleeing the Spanish Inquisition brought cacao preparation techniques to Bayonne (10km from Biarritz), making it the first place in France to produce chocolate.
Les Halles de Biarritz
Rue des Halles, 64200 Biarritz
This market was built on a tennis court.

Quartier Sainte-Eugénie
Place Sainte-Eugénie, Biarritz, 64200, France
The Quartier Sainte-Eugénie is the charming neighbourhood between the Grand Plage and the Port des Pêcheurs — a cluster of Belle Époque and Art Deco buildings around the Église Sainte-Eugénie and its panoramic terrace overlooking the old port.
Saint-Jean-de-Luz
Biarritz, France
Saint-Jean-de-Luz is the prettiest fishing port on the Basque coast — a sheltered bay town 20 minutes south of Biarritz where Louis XIV married Maria Theresa of Spain in 1660 (the wedding church, Église Saint-Jean-Baptiste, has the finest Basque church interior on the French side) and where the working tuna fishing fleet still lands its catch at the harbour.
