Surfing in France

[Killy]

Hi eveyrone,

My boyfriend is a fan of surfing and we are going to Biarritz, in south of France in July!! i hope the weather will be great and that they will have a lot of waves!!:)
we are going there with some friends who are really keen on surfing, thank god, i'll go shopping and visiting with the girls!!

we were wondering what will be best for us, we are staying there for a week, what is best, a flat or a hotel?
my friend found that: http://www.holiday-rentals.co.uk/biarri ... ind.squery and http://hotel.twenga.co.uk/france/biarritz.html

i really found that expensive, does anyone have a place cheaper to rent there??

thanks a lot!:)

happy new year!

Advice from a local: Best to not go between mid-July and mid-August, the beaches are overrun, the waves are small with twenty beginners trying to get each one, and flats/hotel prices quadruple during that period and are really expensive. Go in April/May/June or September/October.
