Arriving in Aigues-Mortes

Aigues-Mortes and the Petite Camargue

Montpellier is closer, but many international flights land in Marseille. A private driver links the airport to Aigues-Mortes with no change of transport.

For a family or group, the 8-seat Van takes everyone and their suitcases.

The city of Saint Louis

Aigues-Mortes was founded in the 13th century to give the French kingdom a port on the Mediterranean: Louis IX set sail from here for the Crusades. Its ramparts, about 1,600 metres long, can be walked from the Tour de Constance. Inside, Place Saint-Louis and its café terraces are the heart of town; cars barely circulate, which is why being dropped at the gate nearest your hotel helps.

Around the walls, the salt marshes turn the lagoons pink at the end of summer, and flamingos can be seen from the road. Le Grau-du-Roi and L’Espiguette beach are a quarter of an hour away, making Aigues-Mortes a handy base between sea and Camargue.

Festivals and seasons

At the end of August the Saint-Louis festival fills the streets with bull runs; in summer the ramparts are busy with visitors. Book early and give the hotel name, as some streets close to traffic depending on the day.
