Bank Holiday’s). Winter still has some sunshine and warm days (nights
are chilly) whilst Summer is simply HOT!
The region has the magnificent Pyrenees as a backdrop whose foothills
provide walking, Para–gliding, horse riding etc. The lovely sandy
beaches with the Med lapping at the shores provide the playground for
every form of water sports. St Cyprien (15mins) has a superb golf
course. Argeles itself, has a magnificent port and provides a beautiful
setting for al fresco dining or just people watching whilst sipping an
aperitif. The promenade boasts many different restaurants; children’s
play areas, a casino and a funfair. I km from the site is a Go kart
track.
The area has an influence inherited from the Catalans just across the
border and you can often see Catalan frescos on the sides of buildings.
From June to September Argeles has many terrific street markets selling
almost everything or you can just pop across the border to take
advantage of cheap alcohol and cigarettes.
If your stay is in April you must visit the picturesque village of Ceret
(cherry) and experience the mind blowing blossom of the cherry trees.
Another “must see” is the world famous Salvador Dali museum at Figueres

in cosmopolitan Barcelona only one and a bit hours drive from Argeles.
