La Tamarissiere
-
This beautiful, tranquil village is set at the mouth of l'Herault. A couple of years ago my husband and I, together with our three children and two friends, went camping at Vias Plage.
Whilst driving around exploring the area and taking the children karting, just off the D612, we decided to try to find the sea.
Continuing down the narrow country lane we passed through this wonderful village with restaurants and bars just literally feet from the river.
As we arrived at the point where the river met the sea, the quai continued out into the Mediterranean, at the end of which proudly stood a small lighthouse. All along the quai were places amongst the rocks where the children could fish for crabs or, more adventurously, use a fishing pole for larger prey.
As we rested there, the sun began to set, giving that wonderful golden glow that is unique to the south of France. The lights in the village along the opposite bank of the river began to twinkle in the twilight, making the spot a veritable fairyland.
This is one of the nicest holiday places we have ever visited throughout our family lifetime, and one day we would love to return.
