Fancy a gourmet weekend in Occitanie between sea, lagoon and vineyards? The Thau Lagoon basin is the perfect place for an authentic getaway in the south of France.

The village of Bouzigues is considered the cradle of this shellfish farming tradition.

In the oyster farms bordering the Thau Lagoon, it is possible to taste oysters directly at the producers' place , facing the farming tables.

This dry white wine, produced in the vineyards around the pond, is renowned for:

  • its freshness

  • its citrus aromas
