Collioure

Details of the activity

The colours, the exceptional light, the authenticity and the picturesqueness of this small Catalan fishing port attracted the painters Matisse and Derain as early as 1905. A real postcard, with its exquisite bay surmounted by a bell tower, its mill and its castle, Collioure nevertheless cultivates its authenticity, notably through the development of its land. For several centuries, Collioure has been famous for the preparation of a typically Catalan dish - anchovies. Collioure is also surrounded by terraced vineyards which produce excellent wines, including the Banyuls AOC, a natural sweet wine aged in oak barrels.
