Hotels in French Basque Country, France

French Basque Country hugs the Atlantic coast of southwestern France, with mild winters around 50°F (10°C) and warm summers hitting 75°F (24°C). It's famous for world-class surfing waves at spots like Biarritz and Hossegor, plus pintxos (Basque tapas) in Bayonne's old town. In summer, you can paddleboard on the Nivelle River or hike the Pyrenees foothills; come winter, explore the indoor pelota courts in Saint-Jean-de-Luz or snag cheaper hotel rates while still enjoying sunny 60°F (15°C) days along the coastal paths.
