Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer is at the southern edge of the Camargue, in southern Provence and on the Mediterranean. It can be reached most easily from Aigues-Mortes to the west or Arles to the north-east. On a thin peninsula jutting into the Petit-Rhone delta region, the town is almost completely surrounded by water, and numerous beaches and dunes are to hand, as well as the possibilities of exploring the Camargue region - indeed it is almost the only sizable town in the Camargue.
Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer is a small town, dominated by its church, and surrounded by attractive streets of simple white washed houses, many of them now shops focussing on the tourist market. There is a small active harbour in the town to amble around, with a couple of harbourside restaurants etc
The fortified church in Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer is very artfully lit with halogen lighting, and the stone interior not over-cleaned, making it very atmospheric. You can see the statue of Sara in the church - go to the rear of the church and descend the stairs. There is then a separate entrance to the side of the church where you can ascend to the ramparts and look out over the town and the Camargue (there is a charge for this part of the visit).
Tempting as it may be to discard Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer as just another beach holiday destination in the South of France, that is simply not the case. Much of the town’s charm lends itself to the fact that it is situated in the beautifully uncultivated Camargue, known for its wild white horses, bulls and flamingos. At first the little town appears to be typically French with groups of friends playing boules in Place de Gitan (the main square), children running down the street clutching baguettes and narrow cobbled streets. This French town however, is infused with a strong sense of all that is typically Spanish too. The town’s explanation for this inimitable mix derives from folklore as does the town’s name itself.
Legend has it that Marie Jacobé, the aunt of Jesus and Marie Salomé were washed upon the shores of Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer from Palestine in the first century AD, thus giving it its name. On arrival, the women’s accompanying servant Sara is said to have vowed to protect the gypsies of Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer having heard that their children were being killed, and in consequence she became their patron saint. Nowadays the town still holds great importance for gypsies which explains the strong presence of flamenco music, dress and dance. (Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer is a pilgrimage town for gypsies, who gather in great numbers in the town each May to commemorate Sara.)
At night the streets of Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer are filled with the celebratory sounds of live Spanish guitar and singing. A popular spot, just opposite the tourist office is La Siesta where every night, flamenco music bursts from the little stage at the edge of the café. With its comfy white chairs and fuchsia pink parasols this quirky space is perfect for either an aperitif or an after dinner coffee or cocktail. The bars either side of La Siesta have live flamenco music too but they are far enough apart that the groups never drown each other out or compete.
In terms of places to eat and drink, Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer has plenty to offer with or without the accompaniment of live music. L’Avenue Federic Mistral for example, is a single street dedicated to restaurants and cafes, several of which have very large full paella pans out the front in order to entice potential customers. A little way off the beaten track but still only walking distance from the centre is Bar de L’Etang in L’Etang des Launes.

해안가 근처 레몬 농장을 찾았다. 생각했던 넓은 평지의 농장이 아니다. 산을 깎아 만든 계단형의 농장이다. 유럽의 지리적표시보호를 받는 레몬 품종 8종 중 하나인 망통 레몬은 황금과일이라 불릴 정도의 노란 빛깔, 그리고 강한 풍미와 달콤한 과육이 특징이다. 이는 지중해에 자리한 지리적 환경 때문이라고 한다. “오래전에는 산을 있는 그대로 사용했지만, 점차 산을 계단 모양으로 깎아 이용하기 시작했습니다. 이런 방식은 여러 가지 장점들이 있어요. 우선 바다를 마주 볼 수 있어 따뜻한 해풍이 부는데 굉장히 특별하죠. 그리고 두 번째 장점은 산이 이곳을 추위로부터 보호해준다는 것이죠. 그래서 망통은 전 세계에서 레몬 나무가 자랄 수 있는 지역 중 가장 북쪽에 자리하고 있어요.” 가장 북쪽에 위치한 재배지인 만큼 수확도 가장 늦게 이루어진다고 한다, 대부분의 수확이 끝난 지금 도미닉은 마지막 남겨진 과일들을 따느라 분주해 보인다. 혼자서 작업하는 모습에 도와주겠다고 나섰는데, 아차! 과일을 잘라야 하는데 가지를 몽땅 잘라버렸다. 미안한 마음에 꽤 오랜 시간 작업한 듯하다. 그래도 일을 마친 도미닉을 보니 먼 타국 땅에서 좋은 일을 한 것 같아 조금은 뿌듯해진다. 이 농장에선 레몬 묘목도 직접 길러 판매한다고 한다. 품질 좋은 망통 레몬을 집에 두고자 하는 사람들이 많이 찾는다고 한다. “레몬축제에 갈 기회가 생겨서 오게 됐어요. 망통이 레몬으로 유명하다는 것도 예전부터 어느 정도는 알고 있었어요. 그래서 망통 레몬을 가져가려고요.”

I found a lemon farm near the coast. It is not a large flat farm I thought of. It is a stepped farm made by cutting mountains. One of eight varieties of lemon varieties protected by European geographical indications, minton lemons are characterized by a yellowish color, called golden fruit, and a strong flavor and sweet flesh. This is due to the geographical environment in the Mediterranean Sea. I used the mountain as it was a long time ago, but gradually I started to use the mountain in a stepped shape. This approach has several advantages. First of all, I can face the sea, and the warm sea breeze is very special. And the second advantage is that the mountain protects the place from the cold. The Menton is located in the most northern part of the world where lemon trees can grow. As it is the northernmost plantation, the harvest is the slowest, and most of the harvest is over, It seems to be busy. I'm going to help you figure out how to work alone. I had to cut the fruit, but I cut off all the branches. I feel sorry for a long time. However, Dominic, who has finished his work, seems to have done a good job in the distant lands. This farm also sells lemon seedlings. It is said that many people who want to put a good quality menco lemon in their home are finding it. I had a chance to go to the lemon festival. I have known for some time that menton is famous for lemons. So I'm going to take a mint lemon.

J'ai trouvé une ferme de citrons près de la côte. Ce n'est pas une grande ferme plate à laquelle j'ai pensé. C'est une ferme à étages faite en coupant des montagnes. Parmi les huit variétés de citrons protégées par les indications géographiques européennes, les citrons minton se caractérisent par une couleur jaunâtre, appelée fruit doré, une saveur forte et une chair douce. Cela est dû à l'environnement géographique en Méditerranée. J'utilisais la montagne telle qu'elle était il y a longtemps, mais petit à petit, j'ai commencé à utiliser la montagne en escalier. Cette approche présente plusieurs avantages. Tout d'abord, je peux faire face à la mer, et la brise de mer chaude est très spéciale. Et le deuxième avantage est que la montagne protège le lieu du froid. Le Menton est situé dans la partie la plus septentrionale du monde où les citronniers peuvent pousser. Comme il s’agit de la plantation la plus septentrionale, la récolte est la plus lente et la majeure partie de la récolte est terminée, Il semble être occupé. Je vais vous aider à comprendre comment travailler seul. J'ai dû couper le fruit, mais j'ai coupé toutes les branches. Je me sens désolé pendant longtemps. Cependant, Dominic, qui a terminé son travail, semble avoir fait du bon travail dans les contrées lointaines. Cette ferme vend également des plants de citron. On dit que beaucoup de gens qui veulent mettre un citron menco de bonne qualité chez eux le trouvent. J'ai eu la chance d'aller à la fête du citron. Je sais depuis un certain temps que le menton est célèbre pour les citrons. Alors je vais prendre un citron à la menthe.

In this video my family and I are off to the beach in Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer. This is a coastal town in the South of France, which has a very Spanish feel due to the fact that it used to be Spanish territory. What to expect? A day at the beach, filled with a lot of sun bathing, swimming, laying under the umbrella and some fine Spanish food for dinner.
