Our opinion on the Fort de Socoa Beach

Adresse of the Fort de Socoa Beach : Digue du marégraphe Socoa, Ciboure 64500 Socoa

Fort Socoa Beach is located at the end of Socoa, behind the small fishing port (very typical with beautifully coloured boats) and at the foot of the fort. Small (less than 100 meters), but it remains without doubt the most picturesque with the Fort in the background and a beautiful view of the Great Beach of St Jean de Luz. Thanks to the presence of the dam, it remains one of the quietest beaches of the Basque coast and is very popular with families. Note that it is supervised during the summer season.

To park, you must use the parking at the entrance of the resort (the Yacht Club car park) and then walk to the beach (less than 5 minutes).

Fort de Socoa beach in Ciboure in France

The public sandy beach is located at the foot of Socoa’s Fort and next to the small fishing port.

It is opposite St Jean de Luz, one of the most beautiful beaches of the Pays Basque.

From the dam adjacent to this beach, there is a beautiful view of the fort and the resort of Socoa.

On the left you can see the Socoa Fort Beach. The photo was taken from the dike which is a real protection for that beach. Note that on a calm day, you can go on it for a wonderful view of the bay.
