PROMENADE GEORGES BRASSENS - LAURENT SPINOSI
Presentation
In Balaruc-les-Bains, the Georges-Brassens promenade? Laurent Spinosi runs for almost 2 kilometers along the Thau lagoon, between the port and Impasse des Calanques. Accessible to all, including people with reduced mobility, it invites you to enjoy a peaceful stroll between town and nature. The route alternates between unobstructed views over Sète, Bouzigues and Mèze, waterside passages and rest points in the shade of pine trees or facing the lagoon.
Trompe-l?il frescoes pay tribute to two emblematic figures: Georges Brassens, the Sète poet, and Laurent "?Lolo? Spinosi, a Balaruc fisherman and painter. Their cabin, their shared memories and their common taste for fishing and conviviality are evoked throughout the walk, punctuated by anecdotes and an explanatory lectern.
The walk ends near the creek of Angle, where the most attentive can observe the underwater source of the Vise. This natural abyss, 100 metres in diameter and 30 metres deep, supplies the lagoon with fresh water at a constant temperature. Visible in fine weather or during high floods, it marks a unique natural curiosity in the lagoon landscape.
Popular with spa-goers, families and walkers alike, the walk offers a poetic, sensory and heritage experience. Shops, restaurants and ice-cream parlors line the route on the town side, while the lagoon, birds and lapping water accompany walkers on the nature side. A must-see in Balaruc-les-Bains.
