Marseillan is a ‘hidden gem’ with a very pretty port and is a stopping point for those travelling along the Canal du Midi. Steeped in history, Marseillan is possibly the oldest village in France. The area was originally settled by the Greeks more than 2500 years ago and was a very active Roman commercial centre.
Today, Marseillan is an exceptionally pleasant and attractive harbour town, one of the few remaining unspoilt ports in the South of France. There are about 15-20 places to eat, shops selling everything you need - boulangeries, pharmacies, greengrocers, fish, meat and everyday essentials (all within a short walk). There is a local market in Marseillan twice a week. On Tuesday morning Marseillan hosts a traditional market with food, clothing and housekeeping. On Friday evening Marseillan is taken over by the "marche artinasale" with all kinds of craftwork for sale - painting, clothing, handcrafts. There is a large supermarket on the edge of the town.
A few minutes walk away from the port is a small local park, tennis courts and a new selection of stylish but simple restaurants serving smoked moules, oysters and wine. By the park there is a water sports area where you can paddle board, kayak or learn to wind surf!
Travel a little further afield and you can visit the old port of Sete, historical Pezenas, the fabulous castle at Carcassonne, the old port town of Aigues Mortes, the beautiful town of Uzes and the dynamic Mediterranean city of Montpellier.
There is a TGV train station 4kms away in the nearby town of Agde. Regular bus services run in between Agde and Marseillan. You can cycle down to the beach at Marseillan Plage along a cycle path.
