Being comfortable on the roads in a new country feels like home. French driving rules are somewhat different from those in the UK, and being acquainted with them will make your journey smooth and enjoyable.
Unlike in the UK, in France, they drive on the right-hand side of the road. The priority is given to vehicles coming from the right unless indicated otherwise. Seat belts are compulsory for all passengers, and the drink driving limit is lower than in the UK - 0.05% compared to 0.08%.
Speed limits in France vary depending on the type of road and weather conditions. Generally, in built-up areas, the limit is 50 km/h, outside built-up areas - 80 km/h and on motorways - up to 130 km/h. Note that speed limits can be reduced in wet weather.
A drive to the heart of Biarritz is incomplete without visiting the famous 'Grand Plage.' This central beach, known for its vibrant city buzz and grandeur, is a must-see. Park your car nearby and take a leisurely stroll along the sandy beach.
Musée de la Mer or the Museum of the Sea hosts over 150 species of marine creatures unique to the Bay of Biscay. A 15-minute drive from the city centre makes this an accessible and highly recommended destination for families.
Port des Pecheur, an old fishing port, now glamourous with a strip of seafood bistros, is only 10 minutes away by car from the city centre. Enjoy a sumptuous seafood buffet before moving on to our next recommended location.
A compact or economy class vehicle would be the most practical choice while manoeuvring through the city lanes. However, if you plan to extend your exploration to nearby cities or the lush French countryside, an SUV or a car with ample luggage space would be advisable.
France uses the Euro (€), and the average summertime temperature rests around 21°C, with mild rainfall all year. Pack light clothing for summer and warmer clothing for slightly chilly evenings.
The Biarritz Surf Festival, a summer festival held in July, is a delightful experience along the beaches. The Christmas market in December also offers a rich cultural experience.
Embark on a self-drive journey through the charming city of Biarritz to truly immerse yourself in the flavours of this French seaside city. Bon Voyage!
