Location
About the surrounding area of La Cabane Du SurfeurIn the Pyrénées-Atlantiques, La Cabane Du Surfeur is 5km south of Biarritz, a short drive from the charming village of Bidart and the beautiful beaches of the Atlantic coastline. Positioned in a neighbourhood in the outskirts of Bidart, it’s around 500m up to the main road leading to Biarritz where you will find a range of amenities including large supermarkets and, a little further, a small handful of places to eat.
The elevated Basque village of Bidart is only 2km away – it’s such a delightful place with traditional houses, pretty shops as well as restaurant and café terraces. Wander across to Chapelle Sainte-Madeleine for wonderful ocean views or venture down to one of the beaches below (some accessed via rocky paths and steps). This part of the coastline is much loved by surfers with Plage d'Ilbarritz to the north and the beaches of Guéthary to the south, but they are also adored by families looking for sandy bays and stunning scenery.
The coastal trail heading all the way down to Hendaye and the Spanish border starts in Bidart and this region is also popular with cyclists with routes near the coastline as well as through the Basque interiors. Other popular activities across this area include horse-riding, fishing, tree-top adventure courses and golf in one of the many courses near Biarritz and Saint-Jean-de-Luz.
Spend time in the elegant seaside town of Biarritz where 19th century aristocrats once built their summer residences along the beach, including Hotel du Palais by the iconic Grande Plage. Dine out in Port des Pecheurs or buy fresh fish and other regional delicacies at the bustling Halles de Biarritz indoor market. Driving south, past the popular surfing village of Guéthary, Saint-Jean-de-Luz benefits from a lovely sandy beach, watersports and a generally family-friendly vibe whilst Ciboure is full of charm, especially by its characterful harbour.
Yet it’s not all about the spectacular landscapes of the Atlantic coast. Traditional villages that showcase Basque’s beautiful interiors can be easily reached such as Ainhoa and Sare, both under half an hour by car and classified as two of France’s ‘Plus Beaux Villages’.

Kids
Best Suited For: All AgesBiarritz, Bidart and the Atlantic coastline offers plenty to keep families entertained and many wonderful ways to admire the beautiful surrounding scenery. Of course, the beaches are fantastic for a number of reasons. Older kids may wish to learn to surf – there are a number of schools dotted along the coastline between Biarritz and Saint-Jean-de-Luz. Yet there are also plenty of opportunities to build sandcastles, picnic on picturesque bays and enjoy the lure of the seaside with La Grande Plage and Plage Milady in Biarritz and the main beach in Saint-Jean-de-Luz.
Plage Milady (only 3km away), which has a nice promenade and a playground, is near the Cité de l'Océan museum whilst sea-lovers may also enjoy the aquarium in the centre of the town. A good way to explore Biarritz with youngsters is to take a tour on the little road train – hop off at the lighthouse and the most energetic can climb the many steps to the very top.
Further inland, the Oihana Adventure Park is a great option for tree-top adventure courses and paint-balling. Alternatively, take a trip on the charming wooden train that follows a rack railway to the summit of La Rhune mountain – on a clear day there are incredible views of the coastline and Pyrénées.
