Arriving in Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer
The village and the church
Drop-off in the centre, near the fortified church and the seafront.
Farmhouses and ranches
Many farmhouses are on private tracks: send the farmhouse name or a location.
Saintes-Maries, the Camargue from the airport
The Camargue is one of the hardest regions to reach without a car. A private driver takes you straight from the airport to your farmhouse, at a price agreed when you book.
Aigues-Mortes is half an hour away: both combine well with a driver at your disposal.
The Romani pilgrimage
Every May, the Saintes-Maries pilgrimage gathers Romani and travellers from all over the world around Saint Sara, whose statue is carried in procession into the sea, escorted by mounted gardians. The fortified church, whose roof gives a view over the Camargue, towers over the white village. Around it, ranches offer horse rides through the marshes, and the Pont de Gau bird park is the place to watch flamingos. Vast beaches stretch east towards the Gacholle lighthouse.
