The activity is mainly agricultural. Bidarray is also part of the designation area for Ossau-Iraty cheese. The purity of the waters of the Nive River has enabled the establishment of a fish farming activity. The river also allows for the practice of whitewater sports such as kayaking or rafting. A base has been established in the commune since 19911. Navigation is of moderate difficulty because most of its course consists of a succession of rapids and flat water stretches. ==See also== Communes of the Pyrénées-Atlantiques department ==References==
