THE ENVIRONMENT
How far is the beach from the campsite?
The nearest beach is a maximum 15-minute walk (with children) from the campsite. Many other beaches are within walking distance, such as the Plage du Centre, although the road is a little more hilly.
A small, safe footpath takes you there or by bike. It’s flat…
In July and August, a shuttle bus can take you to the various beaches.
How far is the city centre on foot?
Bidart town centre is 600 m from the campsite, around 15 minutes on foot.
It’s a typical Basque town with small shops (bakery, tobacconist’s, souvenirs, etc.), a few restaurants (including 2 bar-restaurants) and the Tourist Office.
It’s uphill to get there, and downhill to get back to the campsite!
In July and August, a shuttle bus can take you to the village.
Where’s the nearest supermarket?
There are 2 supermarkets in Bidart: Intermarché and Lidl (Leclerc in Biarritz, Carrefour in Saint Jean de Luz).
Is it easy to get to nearby towns?
Yes, thanks to the buses next to the town centre or by car, you can reach neighbouring towns such as Saint-Jean-de-Luz, Biarritz, Bayonne, Anglet and Hendaye.
Where is the nearest ATM?
The nearest ATM is in the village square, next to the bakery.
Is there a doctor near the campsite?
- There is a pharmacy, dentist, doctors and nurses in the village centre.
- We’ll give you the numbers you need.
The weather, the terrain?
- In the Basque Country, it rains from time to time, which is why it’s green and so beautiful. The 4 seasons in the same day. You can’t blame us! Trust us, it can rain very hard in the morning and we’re predicting a radiant afternoon. It’s good for us too…. that sun! Always bring a jumper, a mackintosh… If it’s very hot, a little breeze will cool you down in the evening and at night, temperatures drop. It rarely gets above 30°C, but it does happen….
- The Basque country is full of hills and descents. Cycling enthusiasts are welcome to bring their own bikes. Electric bikes are allowed too! As for the others, it’s up to you.
What can I add?
Come and see us, you have so much to discover, so much to enjoy, so much to taste, so much to look at, so much to listen to,
…you’re sure to leave a bit to come back…tomorrow, one day, with just as much pleasure…
In Bidart you never go anywhere, you always come to someone…
