Family friendly Gruissan beach
Are you staying in the Aude or the Pyrénées Orientales? A swim in the sea, walking with your feet in the water or basking in the sun is a must. One of the widest and wildest beaches due to its environment, with no buildings nearby, is Gruissan beach. It is not one but 5 beaches that are determined. Just 10 minutes east of Narbonne and easily accessible from the motorway, the beaches of Gruissan have a family atmosphere.
Vieille Nouvelle beach or "salins beach":
Wild beach, nature to contemplate. Attention unsupervised beach.
Grazel Beach
The ultimate family page. The beach is supervised and the children have feet for meters in the water.
Chalet Beach
Then along the stretch you will find the famous chalets on stilts. You are on the mythical beach of 37°2 le matin, one of the most famous films of French cinema directed by Jean-Jacques Beneix released in 1986 based on an eponymous novel by Philippe Djian published a year earlier. This film, a passionate love story with Béatrice Dalle and Jean-Hugues Anglade is forever inscribed on this beach in Gruissan.
At the time, of course, there were a few fewer chalets. But if you look closely you will find the one from the film in one of the aisles.
Ayguades Beach
The spot for kit surfers, paddle or jet ski enthusiasts.
Mateille Beach
An area is reserved for naturists. The beach is made up of dunes. A wild landscape.
