If you want to get to know the real heart and soul of Sète, you should pay a visit to the quaint district of ‘Pointe Courte’. This small fishermen’s neighbourhood lies in the north of Sète, between the Canal Royal and the Étang de Thau lagoon and is a world in itself. It only covers a small area, and I loved walking through the little streets with names like ‘Traverse des Jouteurs’ (the Water Jousting Crossing) and ‘Traverse des Rameurs’ (the Rower Crossing).
