What to do and see in Aigues-Mortes, Occitanie: The Best Things to do Good for Big Groups

October 9, 2021 Mollie Coke

"Aigues-Mortes" translates to "dead waters," but the salt marshes surrounding this medieval city actually have given this town one of its chief industries: sea-salt production. (Bring some home for epicurean friends.) Fortified into a Mediterranean port in the 12th century, Aigues-Mortes’ massive walls survive—walk along them for great views.

Salin d'Aigues-Mortes

A la decouverte du sel de Camargue

Reviewed By rajatjmail - Auvers-sur-Oise, France

What better way to spend last day in Camargue than take the train ride(at sunset) and see how salt is made. The scene is beautiful and looking at pink flemingos is a sight for sore eyes..
