Roquille Beach

Av des Lavandières 34300 Cap-Agde

Roquille Beach in Cap d'Agde is located northeast of the center of Cap d'Agde and its port, and near the mini-port and the Roquille basin.  This sandy beach extends to the beach of Môle, along a pleasant pedestrian promenade (there is also a cycle path).
This beach is divided into two areas.  The northernmost part is supervised in summer with an aid station and access for people with reduced mobility.  This is the most pleasant area for swimming. Towards Mole beach, there is a wilder beach with rocks and a few trees in the background. On the other hand, swimming is impossible because there are many rocks in the water (on the edge).

 

Mole Beach

Place du Mole 34300 Cap-Agde

Môle Beach in Cap d'Agde is located to the north of the seaside resort near the port and Fisherman's Island. The most interesting area is near the port at the level of the double cove.  In this part, the beach is wide and there are many shops.  In the center of the beach, at the level of the breakwater, there is a lifeguard station open during the summer season. We also have access for people with reduced mobility.
Heading north, towards Roquille beach, the beach becomes narrower and wilder. On the other hand, swimming becomes very difficult because of the presence of many rocks in the water.
There are several paid car parks nearby. Note that the surroundings of the beach are pedestrianized which is very pleasant.

 

Plagette
Rue de l'Estacade 34300 Cap-Agde

The Cap d'Agde beach is located on the left bank of the port near the Grande Conque and the Aquarium.  This small sandy beach offers a pleasant setting with the beginning of the Cap d'Agde cliffs on the left and the port on the right.  Along the pedestrian promenade, there are a few restaurants.  There is also an underwater trail on this beach. At the level of the cliff there is a kind of small cove accessible only by passing by the sea. Several car parks are nearby (P18 and P19 for example).

 

Grande Conque
Beach Allee de la Conque 34300 Cap d'Agde

Grande Conque Beach in Cap d'Agde is located between Plagette and Mole Beach near the cliffs of Cap d'Agde.  With its high cliffs of volcanic origin and its gray sand, this Cap d'Agde beach is the most original and offers a wild setting for a beach near the town centre. Access is via stairs dug into the cliff (see last photo).  Even if it is sought after, you generally manage to find a place to put your towel even in the middle of summer (about 200 meters in length).
The easiest way to access this beach is to park in the Fortin car park then follow the path along the seaside (5 minutes walk). The beach is indicated by signs.

 

Cliff Beach
Rue des Falaises 34300 Cap d'Agde

Falaises Beach in Cap d'Agde is located between Mole Beach and Grande Conque at the start of the cliff area.  This sand and gravel beach is less crowded than the large beaches of Cap d'Agde. There is a less touristy environment with the presence of black rocks of volcanic origin and cliffs on the left. You can also have an overall view of the coast of Cap d'Agde from there, original because of the presence of cliffs (rare in the department of Hérault). Access is via a few stairs on the left side. There is parking nearby

Mail de Rochelongue 34300 Cap d Agde

Richelieu Beach
Rue des Corsaires 34300 Cap d'Agde

Richelieu Beach in Cap d'Agde is located to the west of the seaside resort, on the right bank of the Port near the Richelieu district.  This long sandy beach stretches for more than a kilometer.  There are several private beaches as well as many water activities (pedal boats, buoys, etc.) as well as a playground for children.  The beach is bordered by a pleasant pedestrian promenade.  On the left, we find the nautical center of Cap d'Agde which is attached to the port.  Two accesses are equipped for people with reduced mobility (Richelieu East and Richelieu West).

Naturist Beach
Rue des Nereides 34300 Agde

Cap d'Agde's naturist beach stretches north of the resort around Port Ambonne on the edge of Marseillan-Plage.  Located in a 100% naturist area, this long sandy beach stretches for about 1 km. Along the beach, there are many apartments, small residences and several campsites. This beach has a lifeguard station (open in summer) and is equipped for people with reduced mobility. In summer, there are also several huts with restaurants and mattress rentals. Access is via the naturist camp for non-residents (paying). Attendance not always family ... the notion of "Naturism" on this beach does not always correspond to the norm ...
Access is at the Ambonne port. Access can also be via Marseillan via Rieu beach (route de Sète, then chemin Payrollet and avenue des campings). This avoids paying the right of access to the naturist camp (you have to walk about 600 meters but the first area at Bagnas beach is already naturist).
