Anglet, Between sea and pine forests

In Anglet, between Biarritz and Bayonne, the Atlantic offers an iodized breath of fresh air every day. City of foam and light, it combines wild beaches, generous nature and the Basque way of life. 


From Maison Chiberta, it all starts here — between pine forest, ocean rolls and endless horizons.

Anglet is not only a seaside resort in the South West: it is a landscape, a sensation, a tempo. Between fragrant pine forests and beaches as far as the eye can see, the city deploys a unique geography of wild coasts, forests and golf courses. Just a few minutes away, Biarritz completes this picture with its seaside elegance and iconic sites.
