Argelès-sur-Mer & Le Racou
Where the sand ends and the rocks begin
Argelès has seven kilometres of sandy beach. At the southern end lies Le Racou, a small beach village where the Côte Vermeille begins. From here the Sentier du littoral coastal path runs along the cliffs to Collioure – about two hours.
