Spend an afternoon in this seaside town and you're bound to feel like you're in a French story book... the manicured town square and the fishing boats are nearly too perfect. A walk along the pedestrian cobblestone streets and you'll happen upon the historic Eglise St-Jean Baptiste, the largest Basque church where Louis the 14th sealed the deal and the door...!
We had a hard time finding a restaurant open to serve us lunch so late in the day but a visit to Maison du Kanouga and we had more than enough varieties of marzipan and macaroons to last us till Spain. Favourite treat: pistachio macaroon, no doubt!
