Ideas for outings for children
Sand castles are not the only activity available for our little ones in the Basque Country! The Biarritz Aquarium and its famous seal meal will satisfy your children’s curiosity, as will the famous Isturitz and Oxocelhaya caves! You can also admire the whole region from the top of the Rhune after its ascent on foot or by the cogwheel train. A must in good weather!

Hiking on the coast and in the interior of the country
Why not breathe deeply in the iodized ocean air while enjoying a walk of nearly 5km from the cave of the Chambre d’Amour in Anglet to the beach of the Côte des Basques? You will thus discover some of the essential places of Biarritz!

The great wealth of the Basque Country is its diversity! Ocean and mountains mingle for our greatest pleasure …
Go up on the Rhune thanks to a small cogwheel train to discover an extraordinary panorama… Walk on the passes and meet the vultures and the potoks… Take a breath of fresh air in the gorges of Kakuetta and Holzarte and shiver on its famous catwalk!

Visit the Basque villages and their churches
If Espelette is known to everyone for its chilli pepper, it is not the only Basque village that is worth a detour! Organize a trip and go through Arcangues, Aïnoha, Saint Jean Pied de Port, Itxassou, Sare … And the list is far from exhaustive!
Discover this typical architecture, these houses and farms always highlighted and perfectly maintained, and do not hesitate to enter the churches with their famous galleries and their richly decorated choirs!
