Baie des COCHONS — Village Naturiste Cap d'Agde
Very beautiful beach to discover. Le Cap d'Agde is a seaside resort in the French commune of Agde in Hérault. It is located at the foot of an ancient volcano, Mont Saint-Loup, on the shores of the Mediterranean Sea. It was built starting in 1970 on the site of a marsh as part of the tourist development planning of the Languedoc-Roussillon coastline. One of the unique features of Le Cap d'Agde was the naturist village, which corresponds to the Bagnas district. When it was created in 1974, the French State established it exclusively for naturism as part of the Mission Racine. An exclusive private development project within a private park, it nevertheless did not comply with the urban planning directives excluding large international-style architectural complexes laid down by the chief architect of the resort of Cap d'Agde. It was one of the largest naturist sites in the world, the leading one in Europe in terms of accommodation capacity (hotels, holiday residences, a campsite village). However, today, some visitors and holidaymakers have moved away from the naturist ethos, including on family-oriented beaches, and this district is gradually being deserted by naturist families. In response, the village of Cap d'Agde lost its accreditation from the Fédération française de naturisme, and naturist holidaymaking families are also abandoning this location to visit other exclusively naturist holiday resorts in the region.
