Gruissan

A little Mediterranean coastal town in the Aude, southeast of Narbonne, Gruissan sits within the Narbonnaise en Méditerranée regional nature park alongside lagoons, the Clape massif, and a stretch of protected shoreline. The surrounding area is deep in Languedoc wine country, and the town carries a café and restaurant scene that punches above its size. The historian Émile Raunié was born here in 1854.
