This stage marks the end of the whole ViaRhône route, with the Mediterranean and its beaches beckoning, and very easily accessed by bike. First you need to cycle alongside the Canal du Rhône à Sète between Aigues-Mortes and Le Grau-du-Roi. Then you ride alongside the Mediterranean and its beaches, with lively resorts and activities all around. ViaRhôna takes you meandering along the beachfront, between the sea and the salt lagoons behind. Have your swimsuits and towels at the ready!

From Palavas-les-Flots, close to the bigger city of Montpellier, the itinerary is winding between beaches and saltwater lagoons. Do not miss the Maguelone Cathedrale where you will glimpse at the massif of Gardioles covered with its garrigues. A shellfish tasting while sipping a glass of "Muscat de Frontignan" will be your rewards for this last stage of the ViaRhôna. The arrival to the Sète Harbor, at the edge of the Etang de Thau, marks the end of the adventure.
