Renowned for its mild climate and incomparable charm, Portiragnes enjoys an ideal location facing the Mediterranean, just minutes from the most popular seaside resorts of the Hérault, Agde and Valras.
Located not far from Béziers, Portiragnes is appreciated for its traditions, its architecture and its picturesque side. You will fall under the charm of its old streets as well as its houses with impressive doors, built around the church Saint-Félix. Dating from the 12th century, this Gothic building, listed as a Historic Monument, is worth a visit. A popular destination for holidaymakers seeking a holiday in the sun, Portiragnes is nestled between vineyards and hills, and watered by the Canal du Midi. Labelled "green resort" since 2007, the commune admirably enhances its natural heritage : its wetlands (such as the Grande Maïre) will allow you to observe its mosaic of natural environments as well as the richness of the local fauna and flora. A discovery trail will allow walkers, riders and cyclists to cross many species of birds during their walks in the middle of salt meadows and reedbeds : do not forget your camera to immortalize herons, flamingos, but also herds of Camargue horses and bulls who have made their home around Portiragnes. Stroll through its poppy fields and coastal paths in search of sumptuous views of the surrounding mountains. On the territory of Portiragnes is also the nature reserve of Roque-Haute : on the site of an ancient volcano (which would be the youngest in Languedoc), the place is ideal for hikes with family or friends.
Making the link between the Portiragnes-village and Portiragnes-Plage, don't miss the Canal du Midi. Walk along its banks, and enjoy its 4 kilometres of cycle path in the shade of plane trees : the place is perfect for sporting or relaxing afternoons. We advise you to rent a boat, for a cruise to the rhythm of the waves of this tricentennial canal classified as a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1996 : Toulouse, Sète, Béziers or Carcassonne, here are as many cities that you can reach from Portiragnes via the Canal.
Once past the canal, here you are on the sea side : located 4 kilometres from the old village, the beaches of Portiragnes are undeniably family-friendly. Although they are less frequented than most of the large seaside resorts in the department, they are nevertheless located in a more natural and preserved environment than their neighbours. The "Western Beach" is wild and extensive : surrounded by several ponds, you will find a sailing school and space to plant your parasol in peace. The beach of "La Redoute" is the closest to the city centre : its clear waters call for swimming, and its wide sandbank invites to long idleness sessions. Hidden by the dunes, the beach of Le Bosquet, its picnic areas and its playgrounds for children is very popular with families, who come to spend long days, quiet and under the sun. You will also find a nautical base which will allow you to enjoy a wide range of activities: mono-skiing, towed buoy, wakeboard, paddle... : you will have only the embarrassment of the choice to occupy the afternoons of your portiragnaises holidays !
Finally, in the evening, life does not stop in Portiragnes : concerts, shows, fireworks, féria, Camargue shows, petanque competitions and "toro-piscine" will allow you to enjoy this holiday until the end of the night.
