Sainte-Marie-la-Mer by bike is freedom on the Mediterranean. You pedal with your nose to the wind, the scent of pine trees in the background, and the sea sparkling just two wheels away. Renting a bike in Sainte-Marie-la-Mer means choosing a gentle way to explore the area without hurrying, to the rhythm of the waves and the white streets.

To the north, head along the dunes towards Torreilles-plage, including a swim stop. To the south, the walk leads to Canet, with a recommended detour to the étang de Canet-Saint-Nazaire: pink flamingos, herons, changing light... a real picture. At the end of the afternoon, we head for the small roads between vineyards and tamarisk groves, when the sun gilds the rows and the breeze is friendly. The more inquisitive can easily join the Mediterranean by bike itinerary for a few kilometers without a car, or follow the Têt inland for a coffee in the shade of the plane trees.
