🇫🇷 A great day trip from Port-Vendres is nearby Collioure, France which is a popular destination!…just 15 miles from Spain!
🚶♀️walk along the sea-front with the castle and church of Notre Dame des Anges (which stands on a small peninsula in the sea)
🏡 head uphill into the historic town centre with its narrow streets and pastel painted houses and shutters
🏰 Royal Castle of Collioure – Le Chateau Royal, dominates the seafront at the southern end of the harbour
🎣 Le Moré – old fishing village with narrow cobbled streets and pretty pastel-painted houses
🧑🎨 follow the ‘path of fauvism’ which visits 20 sites in the village where Henri Matisse and André Derain painted whilst in Collioure. Compare the reproduction of the painting with the actual scene in the painting.
🐟 try one of the seafood restaurants – anchovies are recommended as they have been one of Collioure’s key industries for centuries.
