Pinet can trace its roots back to Roman times, and there is a Roman road there which is a classified historical monument.

Of course, a glass or two of the Picpoul de Pinet wine makes the perfect partner to a dish of mussels, and allows you to enjoy two local specialities at once!
Places to visit include historical Pezenas, the harbour resort of Port Leucate and the charming Mediterranean village of Mèze, set on the shores of the lagoon.
