Port-Vendres is situated on the Mediterranean coast, south of Perpignan and about 10 miles from the Spanish border. First used by the Phoenicians and named Porto Venares (Port of Venus) by the Romans, its natural deep-water harbour welcomes small cruise liners and yachts as well as supporting a thriving fishing fleet and a commercial port. Sea-food lovers will enjoy the many restaurants around the quay, the large fish market and the opportunity to buy direct from the small fishing boats that arrive at the quay opposite the apartment in the morning. There is a weekly Saturday market and plenty of shops of all types along the quay. There is a supermarket, Internet café and DVD rental as well as doctors, dentists and hairdressers all within a short walk of the apartment.
Port-Vendres and its near neighbour, Collioure, with their beautiful scenery and light, attracted many artists, including Charles Rennie Macintosh, who spent the final years of his life living and working in Port-Vendres. Inland, the attractive town of Ceret is home to the Museum of Modern Art housing works by Picasso. A short drive into Spain will take you to the home of Salvador Dali.
There are many opportunities to enjoy water-sports such as scuba-diving, wind surfing and
fishing. Mini-cruises along the Spanish coast depart
from the quay and a little train will take you on a
ride through the hills and the vineyards.
Wine lovers will have many opportunities to taste the locally-produced Banyuls and Collioure wines and those of the Côtes des Rousillon. Walkers can explore the many way-marked footpaths along the coast or inland. There are small coves with beaches along the Côte Vermeille and larger blue flag beaches are a short drive away. A little further afield you can explore the Cathar castles of the Corbiéres region, the Canal du Midi and the Pyrenees. The ancient towns of Carcassonne, Lagrasse, Perpignan and Narbonne are within easy reach.
The nearest airport is Perpignan (about 40 minutes away) with flights by Ryanair and Flybe. There are also flights to Montpellier, Toulouse, Carcassonne and Barcelona (Gerona). Car hire is available at the airports. From Perpignan airport, a shuttle bus links with the railway station with trains to Port-Vendres.
