Villas in Anglet
Anglet suits surfers and couples who want the Atlantic beaches between Bayonne and Biarritz, with the airport on the doorstep. Its 11 beaches run along about 4.5 km of coast backed by pine forest. Most homes are small, for two to four, and the town behind the beach grew up as postwar suburb rather than a village.

About Anglet
Anglet is a big commune of over 40,000 people in the Bayonne and Biarritz urban area. The coast runs from La Barre, at the mouth of the Adour, south to the Sables d'Or, cut into sections by seawalls. Les Cavaliers draws strong surfers with hollow waves, while Plage de l'Océan is often less crowded. Behind the shore, the Chiberta and Pignada pine forests give shaded paths for walking and cycling. Evenings mean tapas at the Case de l'Océan or watching the sunset from the boardwalk. Our homes are spread across the town, so not all are a walk from the sand; some have a private pool.
