Latest reviews on Aude's beaches

Leucate Beach
10 Benjamin Ashford

This place is amazing, the food is top-notch. I didn't get a chance to try the €130 Steak, but I've heard it's fantastic 😊. The dessert was delicious, although I have no idea what it was, just take a look at the picture. Hopefully, I'll be able to come back in August.

Narbonne Plage
10 johndoe2022

The beach is pleasant, with ample parking space and enough room to lay out your towel. Additionally, there is a small night market and a delightful ice cream parlor by the waterfront, offering reasonably priced treats.

Les Montilles beach
10 Larissa Jovani

This beach is perfect for campers and dog owners. The beach is divided into three sections: one for dogs and vans, one for nudists, and one where dogs are not allowed. This setup ensures that everyone can enjoy the beach. The water is easily accessible and clean, making it a great spot for a day by the sea.

Port Leucate FKK
10 Nathanial Burke

This is the ultimate beach!

Plage Vendres
8 Lena Kranzler

This is a lovely and well-maintained beach that is perfect for families, especially during the high season when it is monitored. However, it's important to note that the sea can be quite dangerous, even if it doesn't appear that way. Recently, there have been reports of French tourists getting caught in undercurrents and struggling to make it back to shore. Unfortunately, there were no warnings or help from locals. As someone who is a strong swimmer, I will be choosing to visit one of the monitored beaches until mid-September for my own peace of mind. Despite this issue, I still think this beach is a great choice during the main season.

Please note that lifeguards supervise 8 beaches in the region, but you should rely on more than just them, remember the elementary rules, as lifeguards are not on duty around the clock, even on equipped beaches!

Finding hotels in relative proximity to the beaches is usually fine. Many beaches have enough nearby accommodation, which gives good opportunities to choose the right place to stay.
