An afternoon in Biarritz

A five hour and 15 minute train ride from Montparnasse train station in Paris will take you to Biarritz, on the south-west coast of France. A popular summer destination for many Europeans, Biarritz still has plenty of charm and Christmas spirit to give in winter.

Take a walk along the coast, explore look out points and shop in some of the city’s exclusive boutiques. Stop by Le Ble Noir creperie along the coast for a range of sweet and savoury crepes. Fromage et jambon (cheese and ham) and Nutella were my personal favourites!
