One of the neighbouring villages of Homps, a five-minute drive away, is a port on the Canal du Midi, the historic 17th century waterway that links the Mediterranean to the Atlantic. It is one of the most scenic ways to travel through the surrounding landscape of vineyards and pinewoods. Small motorboats can be rented, or there are day trips on old barges to the city of Béziers near the coast and Carcassonne to the west.
