🇫🇷 Montpellier Travel Guide | Pink Salt Lakes & Flamingos! 💖🦩
I visited Montpellier for one magical reason—its dreamy pink salt lakes(Salin d’Aigues-Mortes) and wild flamingos! Here’s everything you need to know(plus food recs& honest tips). 🌊 Pink Salt Lakes (Salin d’Aigues-Mortes) 📍 25km from Montpellier| 🚌 Bus 606(€2 cash only) 🚂 MUST-DO: Book the Train in Advance! Why? Walk-ins = sold out→ you’ll miss flamingos🦩 (they roam deeper areas). If You Walk: 3km looparound the first lake(still pretty, but no shade☀️ + windy💨). Best Time: Sunny days= pinker water💖 (but BRING sunscreen🧴). 🚌 How to Get There 1️⃣ From Montpellier: Bus 606at Place de France(⏰ departs ~:40). 2️⃣ Stop: Aigues-Mortes-Tour de Constance(then walk 20min). 3️⃣ Return: Same bus(⏰ departs :45). 🐠 Bonus Stops Montpellier Aquarium 🌊 (near Place de France): No giant tunnel, but deep tank wall= hypnotic🐟. Skip: Esplanade de l’Europe(just a round plaza🥱). Quick Visits: Montpellier Cathedral ⛪ (Gothic vibes). Arc de Triomphe 🏛️ + Peyrou Royal Square (5min photo ops📸). 💡 Final Tips Salt Lake Packing: Hat👒 + sunglasses🕶️ + water💧 (no shops nearby!). Aquarium Hack: Go weekdays→ fewer kids👶. #PinkSaltLake #MontpellierGuide #MontpellierTravel
