FranceRegion

Anglet is a Basque coast surf town wedged between Biarritz and Bayonne, its main draw a run of Atlantic beaches (Chambre d'Amour, VVF, Sables d'Or) rather than a historic centre of its own. It forms part of the wider Bayonne-Anglet-Biarritz conurbation, and Biarritz's airport is physically located within Anglet.
