Ports and fish markets on the seafront

In Sète, as in Frontignan, the ports have shaped life along the coast for generations. Between the trawlers returning at dawn, the sailing boats moored along the quays and the hushed bustle of the fish market where the day’s catch is traded, a whole maritime culture unfolds before your eyes. Stroll down to the docks, watch the boats come and go, breathe in the sea air and the scent of the nets: all these are ways to experience the maritime spirit of the Thau Archipelago.
