In the heart of the Pyrénées-Atlantiques region, Pau has more than one asset to seduce and charm tourists and other visitors wishing to enjoy this city in the heart of the mountains. Pau and its castle, where Henri IV was born in 1553; Pau and its national stud farm, listed as a Monument Historique, but also Pau and its golf course, which is nothing less than the oldest golf course in the world, with the exception of the British Isles. Pau is also intimately linked to water, with its Gave, a dream location for water sports enthusiasts. Rafting, stand-up paddling, canoeing and hydrospeed will soon hold no secrets for you.

When to go to Pau?

When to go to Pau ? All year round, without a doubt. The many museums and monuments of Pau can be visited all year round, and each season has its own charm. Summers and winters are mild and temperate, which makes visiting the city even more enjoyable. As a very touristy city, it is perhaps preferable to visit in spring or autumn. Prices are lower during this period. Nevertheless, winter offers a magnificent contrast between a city full of palm trees and the view of the snowy Pyrenees.

Weather all year round

Pau has a warm oceanic climate, which gives it a very pleasant atmosphere all year round. Summers are mild (25 or 26 °C on average) and winters are not too harsh (often around 8-10 °C). Generally, the Indian summer continues quite late until October. If it rains regularly (oceanic influence), the rains rarely last long and are generally followed by the "beautiful blue sky of Pau".
