Pelote Basque
The Basque region is tucked into the South West corner of France situated at the foot of the Pyrenees and extending to the Bay of Biscay on the Atlantic coast and along the Spanish border . With the mountain backdrop and its impressive coastline this is a region steeped in historical interest and tradition where it is still home to its mysterious native residents. It offers immense natural beauty with both the mountains and the sea as well as districts of remote country beauty where sheep graze the lonely pastures quite undisturbed.
Biarritz is probably the best known part of the Basque coast made famous by Napolean III's wife Eugenie de Montijo boasting fashionably smart hotels and sophisticated shopping. Then there is St Jean de Luz just a few kilometres south of Biarritz, a pretty little fishing village with cobbled walkways and a maze of restaurants and of course the beach. A few kilometres further south is Hendaye with its large expanse of beach and easy access to Spain by means of a little ferry across the bay.
This coast offers some of the best Surfing in Europe and as a result has become the European base for much of the international surf industry.
Golf courses, of which there are many, surfing, skiing, walking, wonderful beaches, Thalassotherapy Centres are just a few of the many activities to choose from.
The beautiful inland scenery, the endless coastline and of course the great weather are all great reasons to visit this varied region not forgetting of course the convenience of being able to fly in to Biarritz airport with Ryanair.
