Anglet, Plage des Cavaliers

Qu'est-ce qui fait le Charme d'Anglet? Son littoral, unique au Pays basque, avec ses 4,5 km de plages de sable fin.La promenade du littoral angloy longe les 11 plages, pour certaines de renommée internationale.
Mais aussi la belle pinède pour le plus grand bonheur des marcheurs.
La Plage des Cavaliers accueille chaque année d'importantes compétitions internationales du surf. Les vagues de 'shore break' peuvent etre très dangereuses.

Anglet forms part of the Biarritz-Bayonne-Anglet 'conurbation', on the Atlantic Coast in south-west France and running along the Adour River to the north.
The coast and beaches are the principal attraction here, and the beach at Anglet is pretty much the southern end of the very long (200km) stretch of beaches that run in a more or less continuous row from Arcachon to Biarritz.
As with most of the beaches along this part of Atlantic, the five kilometres of beaches in Anglet are typically long and sandy. Behind the beaches the landscape is mostly of open grassy areas and small forested areas, and there is a promenade popular with walkers, cyclists and joggers behind a large part of the beach.
To me, it was a wonderful experience to walk the 4,5 km trail close to the Ocean along Anglet's 11 beaches during high tide...
Anglet is a synonym for surfing. You will find some of France's best surf spots.
