With its Mediterranean beaches, forests, lakes, medieval villages and historic towns, the Hérault is simply magical. The capital Montpellier is a wonderfully vibrant city, the Canal du Midi is a World Heritage Site, and Saint-Guilhem-le-Désert is classed as one of France’s most beautiful villages. In the Hérault, you can eat oysters produced in the Etang de Thau and taste wines from the Languedoc plains and the Minervois. Sampling local produce is an integral part of the Hérault experience. The Lac du Salagou and the Cirque de Navacelles are a delight to visit, and the fishing port of Sète is not to be missed. Pézenas is a gorgeous town, and Béziers and Lodève add yet another flavour to the mix.
