Biarritz

Belle-époque Atlantic. The surf capital of Europe, with the food culture (one Michelin star per 5000 residents) and the empty winter beaches when the British surfers go home. San Sebastián is 30 min by road.

Affiliate links: the price is the same for you, and we earn a small commission. Hotel and flights are separate bookings on the partners' own sites. How this works

Hotel link not opening?

Some browsers block tracking links. You can also open the hotel search directly. We will not earn a commission through this fallback.

When to go

From the 2026 climate study, not the live forecast.
RecommendedThis month

Atlantic-tempered — air rarely exceeds 28°C even in heatwave summers. Sea climbs from 18°C in May to 22°C in late August; warmest swim window is July–September. October still mild and dramatically empty. The November–March surf season is a different trip — wetsuits and Atlantic storms.
