In the nineteenth century, the dikes, often destroyed, were rebuilt to ensure the safety of the port and the city. The voyages of Napoleon III in the region then the infatuation with the good society for the Basque Coast came out at that time, with the arrival of the railway, on a great tourist boom. Following the construction of its three dikes (Socoa, Artha, and Sainte-Barbe), Saint-Jean-de-Luz was no longer systematically invaded by the waters during the great storms, as had often been the previously (in 1749, a terrible storm ravaged the port, 200 houses were razed and more than half of the population had to leave the city). Breaking off the big rollers from the ocean, these dykes helped to make Saint-Jean-de-Luz a popular holiday resort for families right from the beginning of the development of the sea baths. fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saint-Jean-de-Luz
