Nestled on the French Basque coast south of Biarritz, Saint-Jean-De-Luz was once a humble fishing village that gained historical significance as the site of King Louis XIV’s marriage to Marie-Thérèse of Austria in 1660. Today, the town has transformed into a charming destination resort. Visitors can explore its bustling harbor, stroll along the golden, sandy beach, and wander through pedestrianized streets lined with shops and restaurants. The blend of history and modern amenities makes Saint-Jean-De-Luz a delightful place to experience the coastal charm of the Basque region.
