There are many small shops, boutiques, restaurants and bars to discover here. A very clear highlight is the colorful cable car, with which you can cross the canal as an alternative to the bridge - or just for fun.

The chairlift to cross the canal is great!

Palavas-les-Flots boasts a lively waterfront promenade with cafés, a beach, and stunning sunsets right on the Mediterranean. Numerous small shops invite you to browse. The highlight is the Phare de la Méditerranée (Mediterranean Lighthouse) with its unique cable car that whisks you comfortably to the viewing platform. At the top, a panoramic view of the sea and Montpellier awaits.
