If you're spending some time in La Côte Radieuse, Canet Beach and Canet Sud Market are top sights worth seeing.

Canet-en-Roussillon is a vibrant, French coastal resort that still manages to capture the originality of the region. Cathar, Spanish, French and Catalonia influences are to be enjoyed all along this stretch of coast. It's a fantastic destination for families with plenty to do, see and taste!

Canet will always have a special place in my heart.
