Ciboure, Coastal municipality in French Basque Country, France
Located at the mouth of the Nivelle River, Ciboure extends along the Atlantic coast with its harbor sheltered by three protective breakwaters.
The port of Ciboure served as a critical maritime base during the 17th century, supporting commercial fishing fleets and trade activities across the Bay of Biscay.
The Saint Vincent Church displays traditional Basque architectural elements with its three-tiered wooden galleries and maritime-themed decorative features inside.
The town connects to neighboring Saint-Jean-de-Luz through regular bus services and maintains direct access to the A63 motorway linking Bordeaux to Spain.
Maurice Ravel, the classical music composer, was born in 1875 in a house on the quayside of Ciboure, which now displays a commemorative plaque.
