Polluted beaches and sea in France


Recommended Posts

Peter,

As you're in Languedoc, do you have any information on the Petit Travesty and the Grand Travesty, the stretch of beach between Carnon and Grande Motte?

After the rains last year, people were saying to avoid swimming near Grande Motte, because sewage had been washed down into that area. As we've seen the raw sewage that bobs merrily into the Vidourle at Sommieres, this wasn't a great surprise!

I'd just be interested to know how it's rated. It's a huge stretch of beach, extremely busy in the summer, but no toilets anywhere, no lifeguards, nothing. In some parts the dunes are fenced off, but I know parents who absolutely refuse to let their children near the dunes, because they're the only place people can go to the toilet.

Big plus though - you don't have to pay for parking!
