Leucate

The Mediterranean Sea and the Étang de Leucate define the setting of Leucate — its exposed shore and long coastal lagoon shape a community of an old inland village, beaches and Port-Leucate. The limestone headland of Cap Leucate projects into the sea, while La Franqui is a recognised centre for windsurfing and kitesurfing, helped by the frequent tramontane wind. Oyster farming on the lagoon is an enduring local tradition, and its shellfish are a familiar feature of regional cuisine. Set on Occitanie’s Aude coast, Leucate lies between the Roussillon plain and the Corbières foothills.
