At the seaside

Birt: 09.10.2023

It should then initially be the Atlantic. Thought, said and done. We chose St. Jean de Luz as our destination, just before the Spanish border. It is a popular seaside resort with a sheltered bay. Between the fortress of Cocoa to the south and the green hill to the north, a bar in the sea breaks the waves. Children can swim there unprotected. Surfers look for the perfect wave north of St. Jean de Luz, where we were able to watch them from our campsite. Otherwise, St. Jean de Luz also has a very beautiful old town center with countless smaller shops, cafes and restaurants. A visit to the market hall is also recommended and a must. This is open every day from 7:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. There are also various market stalls all around, offering everything from fish (large quantities of tuna and sardines) to meat, cheese and vegetable products.

We couldn't resist either, although my better half, Ralf, has to be captured at such markets. His purchases always far exceed what we can consume. Thank goodness we have an ice compartment in our motorhome.

In addition to the culinary enjoyment, the photography was also a great experience for us. On a first tour from our campsite down to the old town, we were overcome with various exclamations such as: Oooooh how beautiful to Wow great. We also explored the hinterland on our bikes. We drove along the Route de la Corniche, which leads south from Saint-Jean-de-Luz along the coast to Hendaye (the last town before the Spanish border) and offers beautiful panoramic views of the Pyrenees and the Atlantic. We then went back through the interior with a view of the Pyrenees.

We set off this morning towards this huge mountain range and the next report will be about it.

Au revoir and Hola Espana.
