Several lines serve Bidart: 3, 4, 38, 44 and 46.

And to know all the information on the stops and movements in real time it goes through HERE.
New!
The TXIK TXAK application offers a route calculator for traveling throughout the country simply and without a car. Once the destination and place of departure have been entered, it offers us the best route depending on the time at which we wish to leave. Several modes of travel are available to make the journey, whether by bike, bus or carpooling.
Transport to go âto the other sideâ
Want to cross the border to discover another atmosphere and be tempted by tapas? We have the solution to make travel easier!
The Euskopass is a 6⏠ticket that allows you to go back and forth to the city center of San Sebastian/Donostia in emtaking the line 3 bus from Bidart to Hendaye then the Euskotren (also nicknamed the âtopoâ) to San Sebastian/Donostia (line E2 Hendaia â Amara).
Schedules are available HERE.
Another option: treat yourself to a maritime connection between Hendaye and Hondarribia, these two charming destinations located on either side of the Bidasoa River. With departures every 30 minutes (15 minutes in summer) you will reach the famous San Pedro street in less than 10 minutes. Price: âŹ2,5 per person per trip.

Do we pedal?
So yes, we said for a long time that cycling here was complicated, and well now that's not the case anymore!
Bidart has two secure cycle paths: the Greenway of Uhabia, ideal for families and for reaching Uhabia beach or in the other direction Bassilour mill, And the Velodyssey for those who choose to drive on the coast to reach Biarritz or Saint Jean de Luz. For the latter, we advise you to sharpen your calves or go out on an electric bike, it's still much more practical!
At the same time, in recent years, many municipal roads have been reopened and adapted for cycling, streets are now shared to leave a little more room for cyclists!
âš The little extra practicality during the summer: free monitored bicycle parking: a security system is available every day from 12 p.m. to 19 p.m. on the beaches of Ilbarritz, the Royal Pavilion, the center, the Uhabia as well as the parking lot from the town center located just behind the tourist office.
Nothing could be simpler: you arrive, you leave your bike and, if you wish, your personal effects and the caretaker takes care of the rest!
