Anyone else for Biarritz first week Sept?

[aaron d]

Hello, hi, im a student from ireland on the verge of booking flights to biarritz, for 29th aug and leaving 4th Sept, found cheap flights, thinking of staying in a campsite or hostel near the centre, if there was anyone else who was heading to the area at the same time who wanted to meet up for a surf or camp together or whatever, their company would be most welcome.....? oh im fairly beginnerish - that might be relevant, aarond90@gmail.com, thank you ...

Hey man,

I'm gonna be in Biarritz from the 13th to 20th of Sept if you decide to go later. Heading over on my own so would be glad of a surfing partner if your there.

Later

hey pablo, ive actually just booked the flights i mentioned above so i wont catch you,where are you planning to stay?

[Pablo]

No worries, I booked an apartment in Anglet. It only cost €370 which was not bad for the week seen as the flights were free bar taxes. Prob rent a car and do a tour of the coast, head up to Hossegor and a few other spots hopefully.. Where are you based? I'm in Limerick, was down in Doonbeg today.. Messy as hell but still out for about 3 hours.. Tomorrow looks better.. Later man

unfortunetly pablo im up here near dublin, so dont get waves too often, hopefully when i finish college ill move nearer a wave, yeah i think ill firstly be in a biarritz hostel and then in the anglet one, man i hope i get some waves when im out there, just getting a french phrase book on ebay now..., pity we're not heading out at the same time, anyway u get some nice ones today?

[Pablo]

Surf was poor today, paddling about for a few hours. Got feckin scalded. Been in to get my French phrase book myself. All we need now is the surf. You might let me know how you get on. Any tips would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

[aaron d]

will do pablo, in case i forget, get onto me before ya leave..

[aaron d]

pablo are you bringing your board with you? how much is it costing you?

[Pablo]

Ya bringing my board with me. If I had checked it in online with the flight it was €30 each way but seen as I didnt its €40 each way to check in on the day.. I reckon it would cost more to rent one for the week so I said I would bring my own. Just hope the bagage handlers will be gentle with it, although some how I doubt it!!!!

[aaron d]

yeah best deal ive found so far is 70 for a weeks rent

[ozharu]

I will be around that area from the 5th of september till the 9th. Bad luck not to meet any of you guys

[aaron d]

yeah not the first time,,, everyones travellin at a differant time, ah well, are you renting a board or bringing your own?

[ozharu]

I'm bringing my board, 'cos i'm driving up there
