Peace and tranquility...

Peyriac de Mer

Don't be fooled by its name, Peyriac-de-Mer is not a seaside village. The Mediterranean is close by as the crow flies!) but the water around the village is that of the lagoon. It is a calm, soothing spot inhabited by pink flamingos and wild ducks all year round.

Cote du Midi

You’ll fall in love with the pretty village built around a charming square where you can sit in the sunshine outside restaurants and cafés, just a stone's throw from the town hall and the church!
The area around the town has some great vineyards and wineries, many of which are organic.

Nature nuggets:

Le Doul and Le Mour

Go through the old salt flats over the photogenic wooden pontoons to the Doul lagoon where you can take a dip, should the fancy take you (the water is very salty!).
Stay on the paths, and continue up the hill of Mour to enjoy an incredible 360° view of the lagoons, sea and mountains.

Vineyards between mountains and lagoons

It is true to say that wines that grow with their feet close to the lagoons will be quite different from those whose grapes are enriched by the soil of the Fontfroide Massif. So much diversity in a single municipality, it must pique your curiosity?
Remember to visit the estates and châteaux on either side to experience it for yourself!

It is also the starting point for Marthe and Virginie's guided tours which are a mixture of anecdotes of the heritage and gastronomy of this superb village, and end with a tasting of organic wines at the wine store.

Amandine Fabre Winemaker and president of Cap'Peyriac

"I grew up here, in Peyriac-de-Mer, in a wine growing estate on the massif side, the Fabre Cordon estate. Such a natural setting naturally deserves farming techniques that respect the environment, so our wines have been labelled organic for more than ten years! We are incredibly lucky to be able to preserve our way of life in a village which is also a tourist destination. That is precisely the value I want to share with our visitors through the events organised by Cap'Peyriac: the 5 Senses Walk and Peyri'Art!"

The heritage and history of the village

Before the Romans arrived, Peyriac-de-Mer was a small Iron Age port called Oppidum du Moulin. The remains are on display in the archaeological museum in the centre of the village with prehistoric and ancient collections.
 Enjoy a stroll through the narrow streets of the old quarter to soak up the atmosphere of this typical village on our Côte du Midi.
