About Biarritz

The historic town of Biarritz, France is touristy during the summer months. It is a highly rated surf destination with fabulous beaches and many surf shops. It’s an elegant place full of culture, bars and restaurants that supply fresh seafood, pizzas and local Basque Country dishes.

We recommend you find yourself a nice spot near the sea front - it’s a super cool place to hang out and soak up the cosmopolitan atmos (atmosphere but cooler). If you love the sea and beautiful beaches just follow the coast once you receive your van hire from Biarritz.

Heading north you will soon descend on Landes de Gascogne Regional Natural Park, a protected area of pine forest, wetland and oceanic coastline. Here you will find small hotels and cabins to spend the night.

Road Trip Through the Pyrenees Mountains

After hiring your van from Bonfire Vans at Biarritz Airport, drive two hours east and you will hit the European mountain range called the Pyrenees.

This area is just stunning in summer - great for hikers and serious road bikers. Or just mooch around and find a traditional chalet in one of the many mountain villages or towns.

Road Trip to Spain and Portugal from Biarritz

Biarritz town is only 22km away from the Spanish border on the French side. So it is easy to make your way down the coastline to explore more of Europe.

If you are feeling adventurous, an 8/9 hour drive will get you to Porto. Porto is a famous town in Portugal known for Port production - a fortified wine available as red or white. Porto has a fabulous vibe, great restaurants and Port tasting of course.

Top tip: Spain and Portugal tend to be cheaper when it comes to food and hotels.
