Meze, France

I will be staying in Meze, France in June 2008 and have a million questions to ask.

|||

Well ask your questions! One of my own. Why Meze?

|||

I go to Meze at least once or twice a year. There are several great restaurants.

|||

What do you want to know about Meze, other than its small, it has a harbour, it has a beach, its on a lagoon, loads of sea food restaurants. I love the place.

|||

Lovely Place - loads of restaurants around a very pretty harbour. We stayed at Hotel de la Pyramide - have put a review on here about it - can highly recommend it - Owner speaks english too.

I%26#39;m traveling to this area in July 08 and am looking for a recommendation on a good place to stay along the coast - travelling probably by car from Toulouse - looking to crash on nice sandy beach for three days - anyone recommend somewhere???

|||

Marseillan Plage is very popular with the French and has a good beach.Or you could try Agde or Sete.

|||

Interestingly, I was in this area on Sunday.

A few points :

The coastline is sandy from the Rhone to the Pyrenees with the exception of Sete and Cap d%26#39;Agde where rocky headlands produce sandy coves.

Bouzigues, Balaruc, Meze, Marseillan beaches are on the lagoon.

Marseillan Plage, Vias, Serignan, Frontignan Plage %26amp; Sete are ocean beaches.

All have seafood restaurants !

Sete is a major fishing and ferry port.

Lagoon resorts specialise in mussels %26amp; oysters.

Cap d%26#39;Agde is the most lively.

Bouziques and Meze are relatively calm.

All are busy during school holidays.

All are hot, clear %26amp; sunny during the summer.

All are close to Montpelliers %26amp; Bezier airports - all are close to the A9+ autoroute - Sete has a railway station.

thank you all for your replies, much appreciated. The ocean beaches sound cool, i like the sound of the Marsellan beach... do you happen to know any good hotels within walking distance to the beach? I am travelling down from Toulouse / Albi direction and am wondering if i need to hire a car to get to this beach? Thank you
