Informations touristiques en français

"Atalaye" signifie "promontoire" en basque. Des générations ont arpenté ce promontoire d'où les Biarrots guettaient le passage des baleines, attendaient le retour des pêcheurs, repéraient le vaisseau ennemi. Pour traiter les affaires d'intérêt général, " le corps de la commune et du commun peuple " se rassemblait " en capitou " sur l'Atalaye. On y discutait de la levée des hommes pour les guerres du roi, de la réquisition des mariniers et des bateaux, des difficultés dûes aux nombreuses désertions.
