The Midi Canal and the Camargue with Locaboat

Bases at Bram, Argens Minervois and Lattes

Bram: Midi canal

The base at Bram is the perfect place to begin your cruise, close to Castelnaudary, the little town famous for its cuisine, especially the dish Cassoulet. The town of Bram dates back to Roman times, but the town we see today was built from the 12th century onwards. Discover the Cathar history of the area as you explore the local streets and surrounding areas.

Argens Minervois: Midi canal

From our base at Argens, the Canal du Midi winds gracefully through a typically Mediterranean landscape: vines, cypresses, pine trees and a riot of flowers exude their glorious aroma whilst cicadas and crickets shrill all around.
Shaded by plane trees you will journey from town to town, each with its tale to tell from an eventful history.
Carcassonne, Béziers, Narbonne and many others invite you to taste mouthwatering regional specialities and such unusual wines as Pacherenc, made from late-picked grapes.
To see on the skyline the towers of Carcassonne is a heart-stopping moment, so formidable are the fortifications restored by Viollet le Duc and now granted World Heritage status by UNESCO.

Lattes: Midi canal,  Etang du Thau, Canal de Sete, Canal de la Robine

Starting from Lattes, on the outskirts of Montpellier, you cruise the river Lez, a trade route since 800 BC. Cruises in this region are almost all lock-free.
You will cruise close to the Mediterranean beaches, in an area of amazing bird, animal and plant life.
Make the most of the beaches before crossing the Bassin de Thau to reach its little ports and oyster beds.
Pink flamingoes, white horses, and the massive outlines of the wild black bulls recreate a landscape that takes you back to the beginning of time.
From this green paradise stands out in stately profile the silhouette of Aigues Mortes, the fortified port from which the Crusaders set sail.
