Fun Places

Beaches

Vias Plage is the nearest beach to la Carabasse Parc and it faces the Golfe du Lion
part of the mediterranean Sea.

It is easy walking distance, passing by a number of restaurants,
bakeries and small
shops selling clothes, ornaments etc.

  
       

A few hundred metres back up the main road, Avenue de la Medierranee, pass the parc, is the Canal du Midi where along the path is great for a cycle ride.
(you can rent bikes on the site)

Just on from there is the
beautiful village of Vias.

Valras Plage

In a south-westerly direction is Valras Plage where you can bathe safely in the sea with your children, learn the basics of
sailing, or just relax and build up your tan.

Marseillan

The beaches are cleaned daily, so you can let your
children play
and get covered in sand from head to toe.
The shoreline slopes gently into the sea, so your children
can paddle and splash about in the shallows in complete safety - four manned lifeguard posts ensure that the beach
is as safe as possible.

Stretching for many kilometres from Marseillan all the
way to Sete, just sandy unspoilt beach.



Most Wednesdays/Saturdays you
can visit the superb market in Vias.

They sell all variety of foodstuffs,
olives, meats, excellent cheese),
household items, and of course
a great selection of clothes

    

 Vias Village

Around the village are superb
bars and
restaurants.

After visiting the market, you
can relax
with a drink in one
of the many bars.


As far as shopping for food , there is a small market shop on site. 
Larger stores at nearby Agde (Hyper-U) and Beziers (Geant).  Not forgetting both Vias
and Bessan have an Intermarche.  A good size Leader Price is positioned just as you
enter the village at Vias.

The parc offers many things to do for the energetic family, including clubs for the kids,
evening entertainment, along with activities in and around
the  pool areas.



   
Tennis, table tennis, football, cycling, archery,

If relaxing by the pool is your pleasure then the parc pools can be your regular daily short walk away.
   
    

If you don't mind getting wet, then a day
trip
to Aqualand at Cap d'Adge is essential. 

Instead you can just visit the mariner of
boats.  Again,
Cap d'Agde has many small
shops cocktail bars and restaurants.



    
 

   


 
 

For the fathers, and indeed the whole
family,
on the way to Cap d'Agde is a
superb
go-kart race track.

Check out another go-karting track

Grape Lovers
For the wine drinkers, there are so many
vineyards willing to give you a special wine tasting experience. The one most local is Domaine de St.Pierre but there's no short of choice.

Inland a little, at Marsellan Village, home
of the Noilly Prat vinery and a conducted tour is strongly recommended.

You can sample the various types of Vermouth and purchase at a discount from the
shop.
The Noilly Prat wine cellars have continued to use the production process created
by Joseph Noilly in 1813.
White wine is matured for many months in oak casks, before
spending another year in barrels that are placed outdoors.

If you feel like a trip to stock up on a quantity of wine then try the vineyard at Saint-Felix, close to Gignac to the North West of Montpellier.  To buy this wine in the UK would cost in excess
of £20.00 per bottle.  Indeed a somewhat different price direct from this vineyard.
