The old village of Gruissan on le Grazel Lagoon taken from the Barbarossa Tower.
Gruissan is on the Mediterranean coast near Narbonne, between the hills of the Clape ( rocky hillside of pine trees and vineyards known as the garrigue), the lakes frequented by the pink flamingos. Gruissan was originally a fishing village on a small island surrounded by marshland. The narrow streets of Gruissan village encircle the ruined 13th century castle tower. In recent years a modern yachting marina, with holiday apartment buildings around the palm-lined quays, has turned it into a superb holiday destination in the Languedoc.
