How to get to the city
Air: You can fly to Biarritz from Aberdeen, Belfast, Birmingham, East Midlands, Leeds, Luton, and all London airports.
The airport is actually closer to the ground than the town centre, so if you don't have baggage it is possible to walk.
However, a taxi is likely to set you back £10

Rail You can take the train to Biarritz (the station is close by to the airport to the east of town) from Paris. A TGV service takes about 5 hours

Sea If you don't fancy the drive or flying you can always take your chances on the Bay of Biscay. The closest port to Biarritz is Bilbao in northern Spain.
There’s a car service to Bilbao with Brittany Ferries.
