Pays Basque
The Basque Country: between ocean, mountains and vibrant traditions
Between land and sea, the Basque Country invites you on an escapade where authenticity and nature are passionately intertwined. From elegant Biarritz to the picturesque streets of Saint-Jean-Pied-de-Port, every corner of this region exudes charm and conviviality.
Let yourself be seduced by the wild beaches of Hendaye, ideal for a surfing session, or by the green peaks of La Rhune, where the panorama of the Atlantic is breathtaking. Stroll through villages with white and red houses, such as Espelette, famous for its emblematic chilli pepper.
As for flavours, succumb to the delights of the Basque Country: Bayonne ham, ewe's milk cheese, gourmet pintxos and Bayonne chocolate will tantalise your taste buds. Here, every moment is a celebration of the land and the art of living.
The Basque Country is the soul of the South-West, combining tradition with grandiose horizons.
