Can anyone advise me how to get to the beach from SJPDP?

I may have 2 full days there prior to starting the Camino and would love a beach day! Or any other suggestions for spending time in SJPDP?

I will fly into Biarritz on a Saturday and start walking on Tuesday. I'd like to go to the market in SJPDP on Monday and also happy to miss the popular Monday bubble of pilgrims leaving SJPDP!

Edited to add - For reasons I won't go into, I am aiming to go from Biarritz to SJPDP on the Saturday and happy to travel again to Biarritz on the Sunday. An extra return train/bus journey doesn't bother me.

Simple. Stay in Biarritz, which has gorgeous beaches, and was the first place that saw surfing in Europe.

Then get a train to Bayonne and another one to SJPDP.
 
Very light, comfortable and compressible poncho. Specially designed for protection against water for any activity.

Our Atmospheric H30 poncho offers lightness and waterproofness. Easily compressible and made with our Waterproof fabric, its heat-sealed interior seams guarantee its waterproofness. Includes carrying bag.
