Built on the banks of the Garonne, as its name suggests, the small village lives to the rhythm of the numerous floods and the vagaries of the river. Every year, an international journalism festival takes place there, in a festive and family atmosphere. A good opportunity to discover the city, its beautiful church, to take a stroll on the water or to move your hips during the many concerts!

Almost every year, Couthures-sur-Garonne transforms into "Couthures sous Garonne", because of floods. With these floods, Couthures is fertile. This is even where the village takes its name: Culturis, cultures in Latin, became Couthures over time.

Pretty place right on the Garonne with a small beach and restaurant.
