Coffee for surfers in Biarritz
In Biarritz, the first coffee of the day often comes after the first session in the water. This guide covers the specialty cafés that suit a surfer's schedule: open early, close to the coast, and relaxed about sandy feet. Roasters currently counts 10 cafés in Biarritz, #12 in France.
Surfer-friendly cafés in Biarritz share a few traits: an early opening (6 or 7am for the dawn-patrol crowd), proximity to the break, outdoor seating that doesn't mind wet feet, and a coffee program that holds its own next to the wave forecasts on the table.
The community in Biarritz flags which cafés are walking distance from each break, which open before the lineup gets crowded, and which run the kind of post-session crew that turns into long mornings.
