Paul,

Take a bus from Biarritz airport to the Bayonne railroad station (Gare SNCF). Next take the local TER train line 62 which connectis Bayonne to SJPdP. Buy your ticket in the entrance hall; it is a small station.

Through 7 July 2012 the departure schedule leaving Bayonne is at the following times.
Bayonne/Baiona
07.48/lundi, NON fetes/ Monday, NOT holidays
08.19/mardi a dimanche, et fetes, Tuesday to Sunday, and holidays
11.51/lundi a samedi, NON fetes, Monday to Saturday, NOT holidays
15.05/tous les jours, et fetes, everyday and holidays
18.10/lundi a samedi, NON fetes, Monday to Saturday, NOT holidays
21.09/ vendredi, dimance et fetes, Friday, Sunday and holidays

All trains do NOT go every day.

Bon Voyage and Buen Camino!

I am catching airport bus to Bayonne Station and then rail to St Jean. May stay an hour or so in Biarritz to look around if i miss the connecting train at 15.00.

Others go by taxi but the train is cheaper and more adventurous, i think!

A beautiful place on the coast, but in the opposite direction from the Bayonne train station where you will catch the train to St. Jean. Bayonne, home to the train, also is an interesting city to visit with a nice cathedral and the only Protestant church (temple) that I saw in France.

Here's another option:
Contact Caroline @ http://www.expressbourricot.com/ to make arrangements to be picked up from the airport in Biarritz and driven to SJPdP.
Check out the website to see last minute deals for an idea of cost. Caroline quoted me 15 euros for June 4.
I will post a confirmation when I can.
Here is her email address as well: apcaroline@hotmail.com
Buen Camino!
