Together with Bidart and Biarritz, Arcangues is renowned as one of the most beautiful cities in the Basque Country. 100% authentic, it multiplies cultural sites and will satisfy families looking for a stay under the sun.
On the heights of Biarritz, just 5 kilometres from the sea, Arcangues has everything you need. Filled with charm, this small village shelters a very beautiful architectural heritage, which we recommend you to discover during walks or cycling, according to your desires. Where to start? By the town hall square, undeniably: the heart of the village, this picturesque square is worth a visit for its town hall, recognizable by its blue shutters and the fragrant wisteria hanging from its façade. Don't miss the absolutely splendid Château d'Arcangues: open for visits from mid-October to mid-December, this 1900 monument is distinguished by the beauty of its large English-style hall and its "so british" inspired architecture. If it is known for its scenery and exteriors, it is just as well known for having welcomed some stars within its walls, such as Maurice Ravel, Sacha Guitry, the Duke and Duchess of Windsor, Sean Connery, Franck Sinatra, Jacques Thibaud or even François Mauriac. The church of Saint-Jean-Baptiste de l'Uhabia (13th century) is also worth a visit: if from the outside it does not seem more original than another (except thanks to its bell tower and wooden balconies), it nevertheless houses splendid decorations, typical of the Basque Country, such as its sculpted wooden balconies, and its colored, sculpted nave decorated with numerous paintings. Not far from there, the Arcangues cemetery also attracts many tourists who come to visit the tomb of the singer Luis Mariano; if you are not tempted, you can always take a break at the foot of the cemetery, to enjoy the magnificent panorama that the square offers on the Basque Pyrenees and on the nearby Atlantic Ocean.
As for activities, Arcangues will satisfy the desires of adults and children alike. If there is one queen activity in Arcangues, it is Basque pelota: emblematic of an entire region, this sport practiced for hundreds of years is inseparable from the local heritage. You can learn about it on one of the pink pediments of the village, or attend tournaments for a total immersion in the Basque atmosphere. Amateur hikers? Arcangues is full of marked trails perfect for discovering the Basque Country and its coastline. The municipality is located on the road to Santiago de Compostela, and is crossed by a vast network of paths that will allow you to discover the banks of the Nive, Biarritz, Bidart, Anglet, Bayonne, the banks of the Adour, Guéthary or even Saint-Jean-de-Luz. Golfers? The Arcangues golf course is THE star of the village! Located in the heart of the Basque countryside, this 18-hole course with the Pyrenees and the Château d'Arcangues as a backdrop is very popular with regulars and holidaymakers passing through the region.
Finally, if you come to Arcangues, it is also to enjoy the softness of the beaches of the Basque coast. On the sunny beaches of Biarritz (the Côte des Basques beach, the Pêcheurs beach, the Vieux Port beach, the Grande Plage beach, the Miramar beach...) or Bidart (the magnificent Uhabia beach, the Pavillon Royal beach, the Erretagia beach...) will be perfect for long idleness breaks. If you are a fan of water sports, then you can choose from surfing, jet-skiing, towed buoys, sea trips, scuba diving, paddling along the coast, water skiing, and much more to complete your Arcangues vacation.
