Founded in the 13th century by Saint Louis with the aim of developing trade with Italy and the Far East, Aigues-Mortes, the first Mediterranean port of the kingdom of France, today displays a particularly well-preserved range of architecture. Standing at the heart of the Gard Camargue, the city of Aigues-Mortes has the air of a real medieval fortress with its 1,634 metres of ramparts, fortified doors, twenty towers and wall-walk. The highest tower in Aigues-Mortes, the Constance Tower, a former prison standing 30 metres high, offers a beautiful view of the vast expanses of the Camargue from the top of its terrace.

Inside the ramparts, be sure to go and see the Place Saint-Louis square, with its fountain topped with a statue of Saint Louis, restaurant terraces and shops.

Still within the city walls, complete your visit by discovering the gothic church of Notre-Dame-des-Sablons and two baroque buildings, the Chapel of the White Penitents and the Chapel of the Grey Penitents.

The renowned seaside resort of Le Grau-du-Roi owes its fame to its picturesque fishing port, beautiful fine sand beaches and huge harbour for leisure boats, Port-Camargue. Surrounded by marinas and offering many services and facilities, with its 4,600 spaces Port-Camargue is one of the biggest harbours for leisure boats in Europe!

A listed 20th-century heritage site under France's Patrimoine du XX^e Siècle label, La Grande Motte is located on the edge of the Camargue, 25 kilometres from Montpellier. It is said to have been given its name, meaning "The Great Mound", by sailors due to its dunes, which they used to find their bearings in the middle of this wild region. In the 70s, the seaside resort was built on the initiative of the architect Jean Balladur. Its creator's daring spirit is reflected in the futuristic buildings inspired by the Mayan pyramids. The result is a series of immaculate tower blocks adorned with grids, triangles, circles and other geometric patterns forming a backdrop like something out of a Kandinsky painting. The town's emblem is undoubtedly the immense, undulating pyramid facing the harbour, where cream-coloured boats bob up and down. Its shape echoes that of the Pic Saint-Loup, an emblematic mountain for Montpellier residents. A long strip of sand stretches out before these astounding buildings, leading to the turquoise sea. Water sports reign supreme here and fans of outdoor pursuits will be thrilled.

Several themed trails are available to explore the town on foot or by bike. As well as these various itineraries, there are 25 kilometres of cycle paths connecting the green spaces that cover 70% of the resort. So it is very enjoyable to linger there and enjoy the scent of the pine and cypress trees, opposite the Mediterranean Sea and the big, destructured buildings that surround it.

Located in the south of the Gard department, the Gard Camargue, or Little Camargue, offers nature-lovers pretty landscapes, both wild and peaceful, formed of ponds, reed beds, marshes and fields, where horses, bulls, flamingos and herons abound.

The Scamandre Centre near Vauvert, a protected natural area covering 215 hectares, helps raise environmental awareness with its museum space, discovery trails and educational workshops.

When it comes to gastronomy, Camargue specialities to enjoy include rice, vin des sables wines (from grapes grown in sandy soil), salt and fleur de sel (high-quality sea salt). This region is rich in traditions, especially when it comes to bulls, and is also renowned for its bull farms and Camarge pedigree horses.

Palavas-les-Flots is a charming seaside resort on the Languedoc coast. Discover it by walking along its 7 kilometres of sandy beaches, relaxing at its marina or strolling along its picturesque canal lined with boats and colourful houses. The little cable car over the canal adds to the old-fashioned charm of the place.

To enjoy a stunning view of Palavas, go to the top of the Phare de la Méditerranée, a former water tower converted into a tourist attraction. Take a look at this curious, futuristic building. Clad in glass and steel, it looks like a giant spaceship. At the top of the building, a panoramic bar and restaurant offers a 360° view over the town's rooftops, the lakes nearby, the Mediterranean Sea, the Pic Saint-Loup and the Cévennes massif on the horizon.

The location is also ideal for spotting the main monuments in Palavas-les-Flots, in particular the Church of St. Peter's imposing bell tower in burgundy shades. Erected in the 19th century, the church is located on the canal's left bank in the town centre, and is one of Palavas' oldest structures. So go and take a closer look to admire its Neo-Romanesque style, then enjoy a rest in the charming St. Peter's Garden at the foot of the church. A stroll by the water and across the Japanese bridge is a very pleasant experience.

Continue exploring Palavas-les-Flots with a visit to the Levant Park, full of idyllic scenery. Be soothed by the sound of its waterfall and the peaceful atmosphere of its small lake, where swans and ducks live. Not far away is the Ballestras Redoubt and its Albert Dubout Museum dedicated to the cartoonist. His caricatures are exhibited there, as well as personal effects such as his drawing table, photographs and all-important pipe. Fans of the artist are sure to love the place!

As the gateway to the Gard Camargue and a major site for pilgrims on the Saint Jacques de Compostelle trail, the town of Saint-Gilles has preserved a most remarkable relic from its old Benedictine monastery, founded at the end of the 7th century by the hermit Giles: the 12th century abbey-church of Saint Giles. Listed by the UNESCO as a World Heritage Site, its Romanesque façade decorated with a multitude of sculpted details depicting scenes from the life of Christ is a masterpiece of Romanesque art in itself. Another treasure to admire is the old chancel's famous spiral staircase. Its quality earned it the admiration of many members of the Compagnons Tailleurs de Pierre stonemasons' organisation during their tour of France. The rib-vaulted crypt holds the tomb of Saint Giles, whose relics attract many pilgrims.

A Romanesque gem, the Cathedral of Villeneuve-lès-Maguelone, erected in the 12th century on a peninsula between sea and lakes, reveals its impressive architecture to visitors. Its exterior façade gives it a fortress-like appearance: its old machicolations were built so a guard could watch over the periphery of the church and make sure the building was defended. The main reason for this fortification was Maguelone's geographical position, strategically located between sea and land.

As you enter the Cathedral of St. Peter, admire the nave and its immense barrel vault, which gives an idea of its builders' ingenuity! The cathedral's pared-down décor is brilliantly emphasised by the natural light coming in through the bay windows.

Maguelone, an important place in Languedoc's history, was also the seat of the bishopric, representing political and economic power in medieval times. The tombs of the bishops installed inside the building bear witness to this rich past.

Although you can park in one of the two car parks near the cathedral, it is also nice to take the little train there in summer.

Right in the heart of the Camargue, this fishing town with white houses is the pilgrimage centre for gypsies. The Notre-Dame-de-la-Mer church, built in the 12th century and fortified in the 15th century, really looks like a fortress. In the summer, the seaside resort of Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer comes alive with its beaches, its cafés, its shops and its restaurants offering the Camargue specialities, such as gardiane (bull stew) and telline, a type of small clam.

As a City of Art and History, Nîmes is renowned for its ancient heritage and its especially festive southern atmosphere.

In the Occitanie region, just ten kilometres or so from the Mediterranean, lies Montpellier, the capital of Languedoc. Its rich heritage earned it the Town and Land of Art and History label in 2019.

To start exploring the city, head to Montpellier's highest point on the famous Promenade du Peyrou, a haven of peace cherished by the locals. Terraced gardens, an ideal place for a leisurely stroll, were created there at the end of the 17th century, offering visitors incredible views.

Next, head to L'Écusson, Montpellier's historic centre, thus named due to its outline shaped like an old French écu coin. Keep your eyes peeled to admire the traces of medieval Montpellier. One of the most striking examples is the Gayon mansion, built in the 13th and 15th centuries. In one of its former bedrooms is a magnificent medieval fresco depicting the life of St. Eustace, patron saint of drapers. Continue your exploration of past times with a visit to Place de la Comédie, created in the 18th century. This is one of Europe's biggest pedestrianised areas, at 230 metres long and 50 metres wide! It is a very pleasant place for a stroll between the attractive Haussmannian buildings, the magnificent Montpellier Opera House with its carved stone façade, and the sunny café terraces, not forgetting the elegant Three Graces fountain. The latter is an architectural marvel: admire the cluster of rocks resting on a circular platform, from which the group of the Three Graces emerges. They stand back to back, and seem to be watching the passers-by...

A 5-minute walk from the square, you can visit one of Montpellier's most renowned cultural attractions: the prestigious Fabre Museum. Its collections of old, modern and contemporary paintings make it one of Europe's most important museums. Stay awhile in the Columns Gallery, undoubtedly one of the most majestic rooms housing the exhibition of older art, offering a remarkable overview of 18th-century historical painting through its large-format works.

The Camargue Regional Nature Park extends over an area of 85,000 hectares. Located at the mouth of the River Rhone between its two arms, the Camargue is an area of vast, wild and flat expanses unique in Europe. Landscapes are a charming group of ricefields, salt marshes, marshes, lakes (the Vaccarès lagoon being the biggest), reed marshes with pink flamingos, and glasswort-covered moors where white horses gallop and where herds of the Camargue bulls graze. The Camargue also is home to incredible fauna and flora. Its marshes and peaceful lakes attract numerous sorts of birds. The ornithological park offers visitors the chance to observe them up close and potentially photograph them.

Founded in the 5th century by hermits, then occupied until the 15th century by Benedictine monks, the Abbey of Saint Roman, perched on top of the Aiguille hill near Beaucaire, is remarkable for being entirely carved out of the rock. This troglodyte monastery is unique in Western Europe and has retained some remarkable relics from its past. These include the chapel, which holds the relics of Saint Roman, the cells, cisterns, cellars and open-air necropolis. From the upper terrace, where you can still see the ruins of a castle built in the 16th century then dismantled in the 19th century, the view of Provence and the Rhône valley is superb!

Beaucaire, a town of Art and History famous for its old fairs which drew crowds in the 17th and 19th centuries, sits by the Rhône river and the Rhône canal in Sète. It has preserved a number of beautiful monuments from its rich trading past. Overlooking the historical centre from the top of a hill, the medieval castle, built in the 11th century then partly dismantled in the 17th century by Richelieu, was the residence of the Counts of Toulouse and the Lords of Beaucaire.

Covering 7,500 hectares, the Étang de Thau lagoon is located in the municipality of Bouzigues in Hérault, measuring19 km long and 5 km wide with a mean depth of 4.5 m. This Natura 2000 protected site is the biggest lagoon in Languedoc. The abundance of phytoplankton, a natural resource involved in the cultivation of oysters and mussels, has allowed the expansion of oyster and mussel farming.

The diversity of this small inland sea, with its many shades of blue, is exceptional! Numerous animal and plant species form a precious ecosystem. Algae and flowering plants thrive alongside many species of fish (sardines, sea bream, mackerel, sole, but also slugs, molluscs and crustaceans) which live on different levels, some near the surface and others close to the bottom.

The Bouzigues hollow oyster has been farmed there since Antiquity. The oyster beds now stretch as far as the eye can see, and this business employs nearly two-thousand people, mostly on family-run farms. You can learn more about the art of fishing and shellfish farming by visiting the Étang de Thau Museum, in Bouzigues. The producers based around the lagoon will be happy to meet you, show you their skills and invite you to taste their products.
