So, you’ve decided to visit Cap d’Agde? Fantastic choice! Getting there may seem a bit tricky at first, but don’t worry, we’ve made the journey several times and this guide will make your journey easy. Whether you’re coming by plane, train, or car, we’ll walk you through the best options so you can arrive ready to dive straight into the experience.
By Plane
If you’re coming from abroad or a distant city, flying is usually the easiest option. The nearest airport is Béziers Airport (BZR), which is just 15 km (about a 20-minute drive) from the village. This small airport connects to several European cities and is super convenient if you can find a flight that suits your schedule. Once you land, you can grab a taxi or rent a car to take you directly to the Naturist Village. However, if you’re flying from further afield or need more flight options, Montpellier Airport (MPL) is your next best bet. It’s about 70 km (an hour’s drive) from Cap. Montpellier offers a wider range of international flights, and it’s still close enough that the drive won’t feel too long.
By Train
The train is a handy option, especially if you’re coming from within Europe. Agde Train Station is your final destination, located just 6 km from Cap d’Agde. You can hop on a high-speed TGV from Paris, Lyon, or Marseille. The train ride is smooth and gives you beautiful views of the French countryside. Plus, traveling by train feels a lot more relaxed and scenic compared to the hustle of flying. Once you reach Agde station, it’s super easy to grab a taxi or an Uber for the short drive to the Naturist Village. If you’re packing light, there are also buses running between Agde and Cap, but if you’re loaded with sexy outfits for nightlife, which you’ll read about more in the coming chapters, a quick taxi ride is usually the better option.
By Car

Driving to Cap offers flexibility and the option to explore more of the region during your trip. The roads to Cap are well-maintained and easy to navigate. Cap is located just off the A9 motorway, making it quite accessible by car.
If you’re driving from Paris, it’s about a 7-hour drive. From cities like Barcelona, it’s about 3 hours, and from Lyon, just under 4. It might seem like a long haul, but the roads through southern France are gorgeous. Plus, it’s handy to have a car at Cap, especially if you plan on making day trips to nearby villages or beaches. Be sure to use GPS for the final leg of the journey.
The Naturist Village is tucked away in Cap d’Agde, and it can be a bit tricky to find if you’re not familiar with the area. There are signs that will help guide you, but having a reliable navigation system will make things a lot smoother.
