Tips

August 13, 2019

The sediment transported by the mighty Rhone has deposited an enormous delta far into the Mediterranean Sea. This channel follows one of the original channels the river used 2000-3000 years ago:

"From the sea shore that was then at the Château d'Avignon, the sediments brought by the Rhône of Saint-Ferréol will build in a little more than a millennium, an immense triangular point advancing on the sea until several kilometers south of the current shore of the Saintes-Maries de la Mer. This point was formed by a succession of sandy cords imprisoning lagoons.The navigable arm of Saint Féréol, then skirted the Mountain through the canal of Little Montlong, and cut the island by the channel of the Grand-Mar (the Marian Pit 1).
