The port of Sète is important in more than one way. First of all, it is a large fishing port. The Sète auction (place for selling freshly landed fish) was the first in Europe to be computerized in 1967. Bidding is no longer done by voice and by show of hand but using a screen. display for the seller and a buy button for each buyer.

It is also an important port for ferries to North Africa. Sète is surrounded by water and is nicknamed the Little Venice of Languedoc. It is both popular and touristy. This port with all its beautiful houses surrounding its main canal is a great discovery to make.

If you pass through this port in summer, don't miss the Sète jousts. Tournaments are held on jousting boats led by a crew of 8 or 10 rowers. They are preceded by a parade of jousters, all dressed in white.

The port of Sète overlooks the Mediterranean Sea but allows boats to access the Etang de Thau. The views are naturally breathtaking, especially in good weather!
