Driving in Beziers: parking and other tips
Beziers is a pretty compact town and most attractions are all within walking distance. That being said, the city is built on a slope and the walk from the train station to the city centre, for example, is a steep climb and a rental car may be the preferred way to get around.
As with many historic towns, parking in Beziers can be tricky. Ideally, book a hotel in Beziers that offers complimentary parking but if not, there is a parking lot near the central train station and street parking in the city centre.
Road trips from Beziers: what to do, what to see
Montpellier
Montpellier is just a short drive away from Beziers and is a treat to visit, especially when the weather is fine and you can take a walk along the Esplanade along the beachfront. It’s also a great spot to shop for souvenirs from the artisan stalls.
Agde
Just next to Beziers is a charming town, described as the “black pearl of the Mediterranean” by Marco Polo. Vieux Adge is home to the beautiful 12th century St. Stephen’s Cathedral. In the summer, Cap d’Agde is a great spot to go for a swim, particularly if you like to do it in your birthday suit.
Narbonne
Narbonne has more than 2,000 years of history and is a popular stop for boaters travelling along the Canal du Midi. The art nouveau covered market is the perfect spot to shop, or maybe the Gallo-Roman shops in the Horreum are more your style. You be the judge!
