About
our region Where is Banyuls sur Mer? About Banyuls Stroll down to the beach, sit in a café, sip a glass of Banyuls wine, and watch the world go by, while the more energetic of you can go wind surfing, kayaking, sailing or snorkelling. Alternatively, you could follow the well marked coastal paths. For the very energetic Banyuls lies at the end of the G10 footpath which runs the length of the Pyrenees, from the Atlantic coast to the Mediterranean coast. Visit the website of Banyuls and
its webcam to see Banyuls and how the Mediterranean looks
today; Traditionally Banyuls earned its living fishing and producing wine and has its own unique wine called Banyuls. Today the seas along its coast have been designated as a Marine Sanctuary, but Banyuls still makes plenty of wine. There are guided walks through the terraced vineyards and wineries. A short journey, walk or take the bus, and you will find many little coves, some sandy and some rocky, to spend your day swimming and sunbathing. End your day by
dining al fresco in one of the many restaurants along the
seafront; feel the warm breeze and watch the lights
reflecting of the sea. Turn around, watch, and listen to
the music coming from the towns bandstand. If you
still have enough energy, get up and join in the Sardane;
the traditional dance of this Catalan region. During the
mid and high seasons free entertainment is provided near
the sea front at weekends. It sits at the
