10 Budget-friendly Things to do in Aigues-Mortes That You Shouldn't Miss

August 17, 2021 Yuk Petri

"Aigues-Mortes" translates to "dead waters," but the salt marshes surrounding this medieval city actually have given this town one of its chief industries: sea-salt production. (Bring some home for epicurean friends.) Fortified into a Mediterranean port in the 12th century, Aigues-Mortes’ massive walls survive—walk along them for great views.

Tour Carbonniere

Reviewed By 18philippeb - Toulouse, France

This tower dates back to the 14th century and used to be the first defensive building of Aigues-Mortes, a very important French port by this time. Nowadays, there’re at least three reasons to visit this place. The tower itself standing alone in the middle of nowhere, the view you have on the Camargue once you climb up at the top, and the short walk you can make in the surroundings seeing waterfowl or bulls...
