Self Drive river boat rental from Aigues-Mortes

In the center of the city is the Constance Tower, once a prison, now the office of the tourist office. Aigues Mortes is the starting point for a cruise on the Camargue, whether for a week or the time of a weekend or a mini-week. It is also possible to go to Le Somail in a week, cruising one way or two weeks return.

The locks are automatic or electric and manned by lock keepers. The locks are closed the 1st of may .

The ladder of locks at Fonsérannes (near Béziers) is very busy during the high season. Frontignan Bridge opens twice a day, in the morning and mid-afternoon.
The one-way or the navigation towards the Carmargue while crossing the Etang de Thau can be canceled or interrupted if the climatic conditions, in particular the wind, do not allow to pass the Etang de Thau. This does not prevent you from sailing while waiting for the reopening of the pond to navigation.

You can moor anywhere along the banks on the Canal du Midi and in the Camargue.
