City of Sete

It is sometimes nicknamed the “Venice of Languedoc” for its canals crisscrossing the city center, its island location between sea, pond, canals and graus, clinging to Mont Saint-Clair and connected to Marseillan by a long lido, the whole contributing to make Sète a popular resort. Finally, its fishing port and its various maritime activities have enabled this city to prosper despite the tough competition from other Mediterranean ports.
