Lively Place Sainte-Eugénie, dominated by its imposing church, is great for people-watching, and the Musée Historique de Biarritz will delight history buffs. Don't miss the chance to enjoy restorative thalassotherapy treatments at Biarritz’s marvellous spas before tucking into delicious fare at its many cafés and restaurants. The fusion of fresh seafood, Pays Basque produce and both French and Spanish influences makes Biarritz’s culinary scene a particularly exciting one.
