For sailing at sea, the Languedoc-Roussillon coast has 25 harbours (with 22,000 marina berths) from the Camargue to the Côte Vermeille.

All the marinas welcome visiting yachtsmen, and many offer superb facilities. The largest marina in Europe is at Port Camargue.

The harbours are busy all year round, with everything from family regattas to stages of the Sailing Tour de France and Clairfontaine Trophy. You can watch training sessions for the America's Cup in the bay of Aigues-Mortes.
