Steve from Mendocino
The Basque coast is absolutely charming, but during the summer, especially late summer, it’s mobbed, and driving and parking are a nightmare. Biarritz and St. Jean de Luz are obvious destinations, but Bayonne is the city that really anchors the area. Bayonne is less of a tourist destination and has more of a year-round population – or at least it did during the period when I was visiting in the summers. The area from Bayonne to St. Sebastien in Spain is an uninterrupted urban/suburban environment.
