Narbonne-Plage

Narbonne-Plage, a seaside resort on the Aude coast, offers a wide range of nautical activities: jet skiing, boat trips from the nearby port of Gruissan, or relaxing along the promenade where regular markets take place. Not far away, the big wheel at Saint-Pierre-la-mer provides sweeping views over the coastline and lagoon. The surrounding countryside is rich in heritage, dotted with abbeys and castles, including Fontfroide Abbey and Château de la Roquette sur mer, ideal for tasting local wines. Terra Vinea, a former salt mine turned wine cellar, adds to this oenological experience. In Narbonne, some fifteen minutes away, the Roman Horreum bears witness to the town's ancient past, while the Barques en Scène festival brings the town to life in summer. The African Reserve of Sigean, close by, appeals to wildlife enthusiasts. Renting a car makes it easier to explore the region and reach the shops in Narbonne. Locally, the restaurant La Tapenade offers a varied menu in a friendly setting, while La Brasserie de la mer allows visitors to enjoy a meal right by the water.
