Biarritz-Pays basque
The Basque Country is also a language with mysterious origins, Euskara, that has shaped the region’s identity for thousands of years.
The Basque Country is also a land. A land of simple, unpretentious beauty. Like its inhabitants, it is straightforward, attracting travellers in search of authenticity. During their stay, it reveals itself to those who understand how to take it all in.
The Basque Country is an ocean, alive with movement. Miles of coastline carved into the rocks, revealing unparalleled beaches and waves that seem to challenge the ever-present, majestic mountains, where villages of character are tucked away. These well-preserved villages are the guardians of culture and traditional skills.
The Basque Country is a land of passionate men and women. Passionate about their language, heritage and culture, they draw continual inspiration from their roots as they explore, innovate and break new ground, once again reminding us that the Basque Country is a bold and daring place, full of life and open to the world, ready to share its secrets.
The Basque Country is pure pleasure. Surfing in the morning, a stroll through the market, roaming village streets, admiring the sunset over the valleys, sitting down to a delightful meal... Food is an essential part of life here. Cuisine inspired by the contrast between sea and mountains and just waiting to awaken your senses.
The Basque Country is you. Travellers in search of experiences, who are struck by this powerful land revealed in just one day or over an entire lifetime. Those who come here find simple, down-to-earth pleasures.
For you, the Basque Country is an obvious choice. Just keep your eyes and your heart wide open and follow your instinct.
