You don't say where you are, but all trains to Irun from France go through Bayonne, so get the next train to Bayonne, then switch platforms to the train to SJPdP.

Renfe train from anywhere Spain to Irun. SNCF TGV from Irun toward Bordeaux and Paris stops in Hendaye and Bayonne.

SNCF TER (regional) trains leave from Hendaye enroute to Dax and Bordeaux stops in Bayonne.

SNCF trains (TGV and TER) stop at Bayonne. There is another TER train from Bayonne to SJPdP, usually 4 x daily.

Euskotren provides commuter rail service from Irun to Hendaye (3km). Euskotren station is co-located with Irun Renfe Station.

Irun and Hendaye are break of gauge stations at the border. Track gauge and electric systems for Spain's and France's trains are different.

Thank you! I came from Madrid. I bought my ticket via Rail Europe with the Rail Protection, so I didn't have to pay extra to get a new ticket on a later train to Irun ...

Thank you! In Irun it was a short walk to the Euskotrain (out of the Irun Renfe station bear right until the bridge, cross and find the metro on the left). I arrived in Hendaye after the ticket office closed so we'll see if I can get a new ticket for tomorrow exchange (since I got the Rail Protection).

I was going to go that route but then I found out about Corazon Puro and a more direct route and cheaper...especially since I too will be arriving during the weekend.

Corazon Puro is a pension that picks you up in Pamplona, puts you up for the night (with food), then takes you to SJPdP in the morning. Since it is set up for those in Pamplona, it may not help you if you are in Biarritz.
