La Grande Plage
Drop anchor off La Grande Plage, Biarritz's most famous stretch of sand sitting right at the heart of the city, flanked by the elegant casino and the rocky Rocher de la Vierge. The setting is pure Atlantic drama — wide golden sand, rolling surf, and the Belle Époque seafront staring back at you. From here you can dinghy ashore and walk straight into one of France's most stylish resort towns.
