Cave of the Chambre d'Amour where Saubade and Laorens hid in the 17th century and were drowned after the ocean swallowed them up
A drama of the heart... this is what gave its name to the beautiful and sad legend of the Chambre d'Amour. That of the two lovers Saubade and Laorens of different social condition who, in the XVIIth century, hid there to love each other, and that the ocean swallowed them in a cave of the Cap-Saint-Martin (under the lighthouse of Biarritz). They were found the next day, embraced but drowned. This sacred place in the cliffs became the cave of the Chambre d'Amour! Not to be missed, like the Rocher de la Vierge.

La chambre d’amour a donné son nom à tout un endroit touristique situé sur la promenade ,du phare à la zone des plages . Même l’Hôtel Belambra porte le nom.
La grotte visitable se situe avenue des vagues. Rien d’extraordinaire à part une histoire contée qui se serait déroulé un fameux 12 Avril 1694 …Une histoire d’amour qui finit mal …
Bref d’autres grottes existent aussi en particulier au bout de la plage prés du phare. Attention panneaux signalant le risque d’éboulis.
Un endroit sympa méconnu se situe dans le jardin du phare. Prendre le petit sentier qui descend et surplombe l’océan…
