Help with S. France on Sunday:Sete
 
We wil be in Sete [S.of Montpelier ]for the day on a Sunday.On Monday we travel to Carcassonne.Can anyone help us with an itinerary for Sunday:pretty villages and maybe a restaurant for a meal?We will not have a car,but if the only way to rescue the day is with a rental,we will do that.I cannot find much information about the area around Sete,and hope someone out there will help us rescue the day.So many thanks.

Why don't you spend the Sunday at Sete. It's a nice town to explore and the food there is great.

There isn't much better than spend a Sunday afternoon ordering a "Bouillabaisse". Get a nice bottle of wine and relax. Mediterranean Living cannot be better than a lazy Sunday afternoon.

We may do that.....Any favorite bistros ????

If you do a search for Sete you should come across Robjame's recent posts about 3 days or so in the Sete area. There's plenty to do, including museums, visits to Bouzigue for oysters, and just wandering around the quai area.

It's not exactly a bistro sort of town.

I don't have a fav but take a look and find one which is right on the harbour. Of course, find one with lots of stars too.

Check out which wines they have and don't order anything which isn't from this region. The quality is good and the price is much lower.

Enjoy

If you can be laid back and just enjoy a wonderful fishing village, you will have a special day! I would go back in a blink.

I am so grateful to StCirq for suggesting I find robjame's posting,His and all al you other helpers have transformed the day for me,and I look forward to a quiet day of walking and eating.
Also.....is there a way to get all the France postings as they happen??I seem to spend so much time digging.And,if I want to view all the postings for one of you,how do I make it happen? I have been reading StCirq's messages for years,as I find them,but do not know how to call them up.I can't seem to find a place to get this help.
So....many thanks to all of you.I look forward to sharing my Sunday in Sete when I return.

To see all of someone's posts, click on his or her name. To see all the France posts, select France from the search menu. But that is not fool proof, as the original poster has to have done the same thing when posting, and not everybody does that.
