Many of you travel from far afield when travelling to Cap d'Agde including from countries such as USA, Canada, Australia, Venezuela, Chile, Iceland, South Korea and South Africa, to name but a few: A truly international mix of countries and cultures.

Many of you often ask about how to get to Cap d'Agde and from distant locations, the best place often to fly directly into is Paris. If you can then a connecting flight to Montpelier or Beziers-Agde airport is a very good idea. For others, the best bet is to fly into Paris and then you can catch the SNCF train down to Agde train station. From Agde train station you can jump in taxi cab to the resort.

Paris - I often get asked also about how to go about getting accommodation in Paris and what part of Paris to stay in. Wherever you stay in Paris, as long as central in an area such as Champ Elysees or Marais let us say, then you will find plenty of restaurants, bars and be close to local transportation. What I tend to do if it is for 1 night is to stay in a hotel. I prefer though often to stay for 3 days or a week also in Paris and for this amount of time I always stay in a vacation apartment (holiday apartment). Holiday Velvet Paris for example offer Paris apartments for short-term breaks and this means extra space and quite often works out cheaper than a hotel.

Trip Reports - A quick update to let you know about the new Cap d'Agde Trip Reports page which is now live online and includes 4 reports from 1st timers at the resort. Make sure also to send in your own reports!

Roger and Alison Curtis have been in touch to tell me about the naturist sessions at Albir spa near Altea.These are held from 6.30-8pm on the on the last Sunday of each month and are organised by the Alicante Naturist Association OSIRIS.

While the spa is not particularly extensive (lots of high pressure water, a stream room, sauna and small pool), says Roger,“We were made to feel very welcome and will definitely go again.” According to the OSIRIS Facebook, members meet at Mascarat nudist beach earlier in the day, before heading to the spa.
Alicante residents and visitors can also enjoy spa sessions au naturel on the second Friday of every month at Clínica Balneario Aware in Alicante, and every Tuesday morning at the Hotel Daniya Spa in Denia. For more information about the Albir spa, contact OSIRIS through their website or Facebook.

One question that comes in time and time again is to ask about the Internet situation for Cap d'Agde. Having access to email and Internet for work is becoming more important all the time for many people. It is good in that means we can take more holidays from if we can just keep up-to-date with work - at least that is how it works for some of us at Cap.

We have now added a new page on Internet & WiFi access at Cap d'Agde and this goes into detail regards Cap d'Agde and:
