Harbour tour in France

Our sabbatical has officially begun! However, we can’t set sail just yet because:

  1. We still need to obtain our boat driving license.
  2. We don’t have our boat.

So, for now, we’re focusing on tackling those two points.

We decided to head to Aveyron, Nico's hometown, for some relaxation. While we were there, we learned to tie knots with his dad and crammed for our boat theory courses.

Of course, we couldn’t resist exploring the harbors of Southern France to check out some sailboats!

Here is our itinerary on Polarsteps  

We visited Leucate, Gruissan, and Cap d'Agde, even taking a look at a Dufour 38 GL, though it was a bit out of our budget.



On our way, we stopped by Narbonne and couldn’t miss out on trying "the best buffet in the world," the legendary Grands Buffets de Narbonne.
Fun fact: this buffet features dishes prepared using recipes by the famous chef Auguste Escoffier, known as the father of modern French cuisine!
You can savor a wide array of delicacies, from fresh seafood to gourmet desserts, all in a stunning setting.

Another interesting tidbit: the buffet boasts over 300 dishes and is renowned for its extravagant selection of cheese that made it to the Guiness World Record,  making it a must-visit for food lovers!
