Mediterranean
Beach holiday at
Argeles-sur-Mer
8
days/7 nights in self-catering air-conditioned mobile home
or bungalow on Med coast with miles of sandy beach. Rental
car from any local airport on option.
Argeles-sur-Mer
is at the end of a long sandy strip of Mediterranean coastline
that runs all the way from Montpellier. Just south of Argeles,
the landscape changes dramatically as the Pyrenean mountain
range tumbles into the sea in a chaos of rocky cliffs and
crazily-angled vineyards. It is thus the perfect base for
lounging on the beach as well as exploring the rocky coastline,
its fishing villages and the wild interior of Catalonia.
The
resort itself is a lively Catalan village with a full range
of
amenities: supermarkets, banks, cafés and restaurants,
clubs and a Casino. It gives on to a 7 kilometre strip
of fine sandy beach where you can either get away from
the crowds or join in the organized activities for children.
A
few kilometres to the south lie the picturesque fishing
villages
of Collioure and Banyuls where the 'Fauvist' painters used
to spend their summers capturing the light off sea and
mountain. As their leading light, Henri Matisse, put it "No
sky in all France is more blue than that of Collioure".
Picasso, Bracque, Derain and Dali all painted here. Salvador
Dali's home village of Cadaquès is just a bit further
on, on the spanish side of the border. The Dali museum
in Figeruas is also worth visiting, especially if you are
taking the plane to Girona.
