Last Saturday, after a satisfying lunch at a restaurant, we embarked on a scenic journey by car from Cap d’Agde back to Manosque, choosing to take the secondary roads for a more leisurely and picturesque drive.
The route led us through charming small villages and towns, each offering a glimpse of local life. Sete and Carnon Plage stood out, both as quaint seaside towns with a relaxed atmosphere, while the surrounding resorts, including golf resorts, added a touch of elegance to the landscape.
One of the highlights of the trip was passing through the beautiful region of Camargue. The natural beauty here was simply breathtaking—vast expanses of wetlands, unique flora, and the occasional sight of wild horses. It felt as though we were driving through a postcard, the serene landscape captivating us with every turn.
Along the way, we made a few stops to buy fresh fruits directly from local farmers. The produce was delicious, bursting with flavor, and a true reflection of the region’s rich agricultural heritage. This added a special touch to the journey, making it not just a road trip but also a culinary discovery.
The combination of stunning scenery, quaint villages, and the simple pleasure of enjoying fresh fruit made this trip unforgettable. Traveling by car allowed us to savor the beauty and authenticity of the French countryside in a way that would have been impossible on a faster, more direct route like a motorway.
