The Languedoc-Roussillon / Herault region

Languedoc is the sunniest region in France, enjoying long hot summers and mellow autumn weeks right up to the end of October. In June and July the light is dazzling and long warm evenings make eating out a pleasure.
St Pargoire is situated in the fertile valley of the River Herault, amidst vineyards and the expanding olive groves. The region is Catalan and the old Lange d'Oc though no longer a live spoken language can be seen in place names As one moves closer to Spain ( a 2-3 hour) drive away the bright Catalan colours of the houses and roof tiles strike a contrast to the gentler pastel buildings in the east of the region as it merges with Provence.

Seaside: long sandy beach of Marseillan leads to Sete the Venice of the South - Meze a charming market town situated on the famous Etang de Thau famous for it's oyster beds and has a sheltered town beach little known by tourists and full of local families in the summer weeks Cap d'Agde a purpose built marina/resort and long sandy beach, with water parks, water sports, and fun fairs.
Collioure a charming fishing town near the Spanish border, packed in the summer, but a good day out.
