Banyuls-sur-Mer

The Mediterranean Sea defines the setting of Banyuls-sur-Mer — a sheltered bay beneath the eastern Pyrenees places beaches, harbour activity and vine-covered slopes within the same compact stretch of the Côte Vermeille. Terraced vineyards around the town produce Banyuls, a renowned vin doux naturel made chiefly from Grenache grapes. Offshore, the Cerbère-Banyuls Marine Nature Reserve protects a section of this rocky coast and its underwater habitats. Sculptor Aristide Maillol was born here, linking the town to a major name in modern French art.
