From sea to ocean by air
Nice and Biarritz: two of France’s top seaside destinations. Both offer an appealing climate, sea, mountains and Belle Epoque palaces… but there are also so many differences! One is a big, buzzing city, while the other offers a much quieter atmosphere. One is bathed by the smooth waters of the Mediterranean, the other by the Atlantic waves. One has Italian roots, the other a Basque heritage. This is why, without even needing to leave France, your Nice-Biarritz direct flight will give you all the ingredients for the perfect, exotic holiday filled with discovery.

What to do in
Biarritz ?
“I know of no other place more charming and magnificent than Biarritz.” These are the words of the famous French author, Victor Hugo. The town couldn’t ask for a better ambassador. However, the writer of Les Misérables is just one of many celebrities to have fallen in love with this Basque gem. So what makes it so attractive to all these great people, royals, fashion designers, artists and champions? The secret ingredients are a pleasant lifestyle, natural charm, great food and pinch of luxury, all garnished by the cooling ocean waves and the surfers who ride them.

Nature and more
See more See lessWith the Atlantic on one side and the Pyrenees on the other, Biarritz and its neighbours (Anglet, Bayonne, Saint-Jean-de-Luz, etc.) boast an exceptional environment. The scenery is magnificent, the sky is bright, the region is full of character, and the ocean is both an excellent playground and a source of well-being.
But who should you enjoy all this with? With your kids? Without them? It all depends on what you’re looking for. Fancy some relaxing seawater therapy followed by evening in a wine bar pairing wines from Irouléguy with Ossau-Iraty cheese, rounded off with a thrilling night partying, in the casino, or dancing in a night club? Then come as a couple.
Want to share some simple pleasures with your children? Rest assured: Biarritz and the surrounding region have plenty to offer for the whole family. Spend your day on the beach, swimming in the waves or even surfing on them. Head into the mountains and cross the rope bridges or ride the rapids. Visit a museum to discover marine fauna and flora, or the origins of the ultimate treat: chocolate.
