This guided eco‑tour offers a quiet, carbon‑free way to explore Languedoc Venice from an unusual angle. The experience is silent and respectful of the environment, and gives you the chance to be your own captain. You will embark on the prestigious royal canal at the foot of the jouster statue.

From there you’ll sail toward the fishing port to observe the working boats and the fish market, La Criée. Along the way the guide will discuss the birth and history of the city at the foot of the St Louis mole. You will then travel up the royal canal to view the Consular Palace, a building classified as a historic monument and a clear symbol of the commercial activity of the port of Sète.
