Coasts - Italy - Languedoc-roussillon - Summer
Italy is a ravishing beauty, and the very mention of Florence & Venice (at random) conjures up the splendour of the country's glorious past. No need to be a connoisseur to marvel at Rome's antique architectural treasures or the sumptuous frescos in the Sistine Chapel. Sicily & Sardinia, the most well known islands of the peninsula, will tempt you through a whirl of images, colours and sounds.
Italy is a real feast for the senses through the warm welcome of its people inviting you to partake with specialities drenched in sunshine & olive oil and served with fine legendary wines.
Tall mountains, vast lakes, small wild creeks and green meadows make for a heaven answering every traveller's prayer. Whether your dream is to bathe in the shade of a flowering orange tree or ski down the snow covered slopes of Abruzze National Park : Italy is expecting you.
A word of advice from Lagrange : Don't miss the bargains in and around Vintimiglia's market (in the Gulf of Genoa).
Languedoc is ideal for lazying in the sun. Its sandy beaches run along the Golfe de Lyon in the Mediterranean. It offers a wide choice of small salt water lakes and resorts known throughout Europe. Travelling more inland, you will be amazed by the region's architectural heritage : Romanesque and Gothic churches aplenty, rich Renaissance-style facades and courtyards from private mansions.
You will love Languedocian gastronomy including sweet Muscat wine and oysters from Etang de Thau.
Further down south is Roussillon with at its centre, Perpignan, a town rich in cultural treasures. The coast has a string of lively resorts and marinas.
For the gourmet, the local cuisine is just impossible to ignore with cool fine rose wines to drink after a day spent basking in the sun...Truly unforgettable§
