Short train ride to
Saint-Jean de Luz
South of Biarritz, closer to Spain, a train station serves two towns - one on south side of harbor - Ciboure and north is the larger Sain-Jean de Luz.
Very pedestrian friendly. I spent most a day here before the tour. We stopped on the tour here for an hour or so, en route to San Sebastian, Spain.
Had a huge "boat" of shellfish for lunch at
La Ruelle.
Short bus ride to Biarritz
A resort town with a combination of sandy beaches, rugged shoreline, and streets and lanes to wander up and down. The market Les Halles is a fun place to begin the journey.
Be sure to start with a brownie from the Milwaukee Cafe - operated by an American woman. Range of food options makes choosing difficult. I ended up eating Italian in France - - just 'cuz I was hungry NOW
