Surrounding the area is a multitude of medieval villages and towns with their bustling weekly markets, pavement cafes and restaurants to enjoy together with the ancient churches and monasteries, often hidden away high in the forested foothills of the overlooking mountains. Travelling towards Andorra you can enjoy throughout the year the ski slopes of Fort Romeu and the Pyrenees.
Nearby the town of Thuir, with some excellent bars and resturants, boasts of having the largest oak wine cask in the world (Byrrh) holding over a million litres. At Vinca lake and beach you can swim and enjoy water sports (15 minutes away), or further afield discover the suberb ports and sandy beaches of St. Cyprien, Canet and Argeles (30-35 minutes away) where snorkelling, fishing, yachting or day trips on pleasure boats can be found. The charming fishing village of Collioure, famous for its links with Impressionist painters such as Matisse should certainly not be missed.
