Palavas is a seaside resort, some six km south of Montpellier, at the gulf ofLion and the Med. It lies on a strip of sand dunes that separates two lakes, the Étang de l'Arnel and the Étang du Méjean, from the sea. The village center is located at the spot where the river Lez flows into the sea through a canalized section. Popular as a seaside resort, the clean sandy beaches are busiest from June to September, however as the weather is so mild during the rest of the year it means that the seaside village is never empty. Walks along the beaches, water sports and wind based sports such as sand gliding are also very popular in this area and there is an abundance of outdoor activities for all ages. The development is located right on the beach, with all the apartments facing south and with all apartments having views over the sea. It is only a 5 min walk into the town and all its shops, restaurants and bars. Montpellier airport is only 10 mins away and is serviced daily by ryanair. B.A and Easyjet.
