Where should I setup a bank account in Biarritz?

We asked expats in Biarritz what banks they use and there advice about banking. They advised...

"Biarritz is a popular retirement destination for expats due to its beautiful beaches, mild climate, and vibrant culture. Before retiring in Biarritz, it's important to understand the cost of living, which can be higher than in other parts of France due to its popularity as a tourist destination. Expats should also be aware that while many locals speak English, it's beneficial to learn some French to fully immerse in the local culture and lifestyle. Healthcare in France is of a high standard, but expats should ensure they have the right insurance coverage. Understanding the French tax system is also crucial as it can be complex, and expats may be liable to pay taxes in both their home country and in France. It's also important to understand the property market in Biarritz, whether you're looking to rent or buy. Biarritz is well-connected to other parts of France and Europe, making it easy to travel, but public transportation within the city is limited, so having a car can be beneficial. Finally, it's worth noting that Biarritz has a vibrant expat community, which can be a great source of support and friendship," commented one expat who made the move to Biarritz, France.
