Walk along the coast of the Basque country - Very friendly and very informative walk. A big thank you to the captain for his great geological knowledge (and anecdotes) that he shared with us on the coast. A very pleasant moment. To be repeated without hesitation

Saint-Jean-de-Luz must-see visit of the Basque country - Very nice little town where it is very nice to walk in the pedestrian streets and on the pier that line the beach. The only negative in my opinion is the concern for parking especially on weekends. The interior visit of the church of Saint-Jean-Baptisre is a must as well as the house where Louis XIV slept.

Fun and Informative Boat Trip - Great fun. Very informative skipper. Exhilarating trip along the coast viewing some lovely bays that can only be reached by sea. A swim stop for those who wished. Very good value for money.

Great experience, beautiful ride. - Great time! We enjoyed the coastline like never before. Paul is very nice and explains a lot about the Basque coast. The atmosphere on board the boat was very good (9 passengers with us). The boat shakes a little due to the waves and the tide but no pitching and therefore no seasickness!

To be done without question. - Great welcome by Paul. The explanations were great. It was perfect with adults as well as children who could enjoy the paddle. It was beautiful. Thank you for this wonderful time. We recommend children (5 children) as adults (4 adults).

Top beach in the French Basque Coast - St Jean de Luz is probably one of the nicest beaches on the Frena Basque Coast. It has gold clean sand with clear ocean water. Its most impressive asset is NO WAVES and no riptide’s. It has numerous restaurants around the boardwalk and plenty of parking. A great beach day if visiting the Basque region of France.

Great sightseeing! - We had a fantastic day with Paul on his boat. Departed from Saint-Jean-de-Luz along the Basque coast to Spain. Paul had something nice to tell about every part of the coastline, beautiful surroundings with sights that you can really only see from the water. Thanks Paul!
