Without looking ... I can tell you the best way to get around in France is by train. So pick your favorite port and check out SNCF website for travel from point X to Bayonne.

502 Trains in France

SNCF is France's train system.

SNCF TGV trains provide high-speed service across France. You must have a reserved seat on TGV trains (you can reserve at the station just prior to boarding).

SNCF TER is a regional train system. You can't reserve a seat on TER trains.

SNCF Intercites trains are trains that cover areas without TGV service.

SNCF and Renfe operate a high-speed train that connects Paris Gare de Lyon direct to Barcelona Sants. This is a new service as of 15 December 2013.

SNCF connects with Renfe at Irun/Hendaye and Port Bou/Cerbère border crossings where there is break of gauge.
