Nicknamed the « Venice of Languedoc », Sète lives to the rhythm of its canals, its fishing port and its traditions. It is the home town of Georges Brassens and Paul Valéry, between the Mediterranean and the Thau lagoon.
From Le Moulin Bérénice: About 1 hour by car.
Don’t miss
- The canals and quays, with their colourful boats.
- Mont Saint-Clair and its view over the sea and the Thau lagoon.
- The Cimetière Marin, where Paul Valéry is buried.
- Water jousting, a Sète summer tradition.
- Oysters and mussels from the Thau lagoon, and tielle, the local octopus pie.
Good to know
The covered market is the ideal place to taste the seafood.
