From Saint-Gilles to Sète

This "flat" canal, confined and without much vegetation, but superb at the rising and setting of the sun, provides the option of a quick transit between the Rhône and the Thau basin, sheltered from the waves. It allows the rich fauna of the ponds to be observed, together with the numerous professional fishermen.
