You can walk all the way from Biarritz to Bilbao in 8 days and take a non-stop flight back to Ireland from Bilbao (they aren't daily though so check schedules).

Vía de Bayona from Biarritz to Hendaye (you can look for info about it on the forum using the search feature on the upper right corner). Once in Irún (next to Hendaye, on the other side of the river), continue on the Camino del Norte till Bilbao. You'll find plenty of info about the Camino del Norte both in the Camino del Norte área of this forum as well as in other webs.

An alternatively to the Vía de Bayona, would be to walk the Sentier du littoral from Bidart (next to Biarritz) to Hendaye (next to Irún). For info about the Sentier du littoral: www.guethary-tourisme.com/discover-guethary/path-of-the-coast.php
