Canal du Midi - Argens

ARGENS
Canal du Midi, Bassin de Thau


From our base at Argens, the Canal du Midi winds gracefully throught a typically Mediterranean landscape: vines,cypresses, pine trees and a riot of flowers exude their glorious aroma whilst cicadas and crickets shrill all around.  

Shaded by plane trees you will journey from town to town, each with its tale to tell from an eventful history. Carcassonne, Béziers, Narbonne and many others invite you to taste mouthwatering regional specialities and such unusual wines as Pacherenc, made from late-picked grapes. 

To see on the skyline the towers of Carcassonne is a heart-stopping moment , so formidable are the fortifications restored by Viollet le Duc and now granted World Heritage status by UNESCO.
