Introduction

Languedoc - Roussillon stretches from the foothills of the Pyrenees on the Spanish border to the mouth of the Rhone and Provence. The spectacular coast line runs for 150 miles along the Mediterranean Sea and boasts some of the finest beaches in France.

The Region has excellent road, rail and air links, making it easy to get to and to enjoy exploring.

Languedoc is also the biggest wine producing area in France and provides the first cherries and peaches of the season, due to the fantastic climate which averages more than 300 days of sunshine every year.
