The Spanish city of Barcelona is located in the autonomous region of Catalonia and is Spain's second largest city after Madrid. Barcelona is one of the most visited cities in the world and lies on the coast between the mouths of the River Llobregat and River Besos. It is also bordered to the west by the Serra de Collserola mountain range. There are many things to do and see in Barcelona including the Barri Gotic (the Gothic Quarter) where many medieval buildings can be found. The city's best known landmark is the still unfinished church of the Sagrada Familia which has been under construction since 1882. In addition to its buoyant tourist industry, the city is also a popular destination for many trade fairs and exhibitions and is also a major centre for sport, fashion, science and the arts.
Barcelona's port has three terminals and is a popular departure port for ferries to Mallorca, Genoa, Ibiza and Morocco (Tangier Med). The port also accommodates many cruise ships sailing the Mediterranean Sea. The port's piers used by ferries are located quite close to the city centre.
The French town of Sete lies on the cost of the Mediterranean Sea, around 30 km from Montpellier, and is sometimes referred to as the "Venice of Languedoc". The town's coastal and canal location is part of its charm and visitors to Sete will find a number of good restaurants, busy streets and visitor attractions to enjoy. If you head down to the St. Louis Pier you will be able to see yachts entering and leaving the harbour and fishing boats unloading the day's catch. The town was built on the sides of Mont St. Clair, between the Thau Lagoon, the Sea and the canals, and is one of the largest ports on the Mediterranean Sea coast. In Sete, there is a lovely mixture of scents from the Sea and the garrigue (Mediterranean scrubland) in the air.
From the town's port, ferries depart to Nador, Tangler Med and Barcelona.
