Rocher de la Vierge Viewpoint | Biarritz, France Photo Spot
Share this Page
Perched on a rocky promontory, the Rocher de la Vierge offers a magnificent vantage point overlooking the Atlantic coastline and the bustling town of Biarritz. From here, photographers can capture stunning views of the sandy cove of Plage du Port Vieux and the impressive Villa Belza nestled on the cliff edge. The sweeping landscape, combining the rugged coastal scenery with the charm of Biarritz’s architecture, offers an array of photographic opportunities. Visit at high tide when the waves crash dramatically against the rocks, or at sunset when the fading light bathes the landscape in warm, golden hues. The site is accessible via a footbridge, but be aware that the waves can reach the path during high tide. Don’t forget your wide-angle lens to capture the panoramic views and a sturdy tripod for long exposures of the surging sea.
