Bidart, the Basque village on the sea, between Biarritz and Saint-Jean-de-Luz, has retained its authenticity. White houses with red or green shutters, chapels cherished by the Compostella pilgrims, the market in the village square on Saturday morning, and typical dishes made using local produce in the restaurants…

The original name « Bide Artean » means “at the meeting of the ways”. It’s a perfect starting point to visit the Basque villages of the interior, to go hiking in the mountains or to go shopping in the towns on the coast.
