Espiguette Beach (Le Grau du Roi)

A wide open beach that stands out and goes on for miles, a great place to swim and walk. The shallow water makes it safe for younger swimmers. This popular beach can get quite busy and crowded during summer time, but is well worth a visit. Touristic infrastructure is well-developed.

Do & See

There is plenty to do in the way of culture and entertainment, as well as exciting tours to go on - from regional vineyards and wineries to hiking up Pic St-Loup. Visit the city's many cathedrals (Carre Sainte-Anne is one that stands out with its refurbished interior turned into an art space), walk down the windy streets of the old town, and plan a field trip to the nearby seaside villages.
