Cap d'Agde
Cap d'Agde is the 'resort' part of Agde, a pleasant Languedoc town a little distance to the north. It is also east of Beziers and south-west of Montpellier. The resort has been almost entirely built since the late 1960's
The resort is at the foot of an ancient volcano and based around a large marina, lined with nice apartment blocks, and has easy access to large sandy beaches. The resort falls into several different parts, each with their own characteristics - but each having a plentiful range of holiday accommodation, and access to beaches and all facilities.
Cap d'Agde is best known for its naturist (nudist) section - the beach and surrounding facilities - ie all facilities including shops, restaurants and banks etc - in the naturist part of Cap d'Agde are one of the largest developed resorts of this type in the world.
Because of this extensive naturist section, Cap d'Agde is very popular with people from all around the world who prefer to holiday in this way. Most of the section is 'clothing optional' but the 5km long beach in this part of the resort is naturist only.
Don't worry if you are not a naturist - you can still visit Cap d'Agde and find plenty to amuse yourself!
Note for naturists visiting Cap d'Agde: if you are especially bold, visit Cap d'Agde on December 31 for a mass naturist swim in water that will be, well, invigorating! Very popular apparently although I haven't found the time to check it myself...
