How to Travel from Bordeaux to Biarritz?

Reaching France's Atlantic coast couldn't be much simpler, with plenty of connections between Bordeaux and Biarritz on any day of the year. BlaBlaBus offers direct connections which take about 3 hours 20 minutes on average, while both InOui and SNCF run direct trains. Expect an average journey duration of about 2 hours on the trains. With 7 to 12 direct trains per day and 4 direct buses, there should be options to match anyone's schedule.

What is the Cheapest Way To Get from Bordeaux to Biarritz?

BlaBlaBus offers budget fares every day, cutting the cost of heading to the coast, and travellers can expect a choice of 4 departures. Buses take between 2 hours 50 minutes and 3 hours 40 minutes (so check for the quickest connections), and run from early morning to early evening. All leave from the Quai de Paludate in central Bordeaux and arrive at Biarritz Airport. This means that those headed to the resort itself will need to organise a brief bus or taxi transfer.
