OK, now that we have had a rant, we guess that summer will arrive sooner or later. It does seam to every year.

Actually, today is great

But just today, after that it will be cold + wind

Not just the beach, the whole place seems quiet. Only for the spate of French bank holidays lately I think it would have been even worse! Whether you can believe it or not, word is that as of now bookings for the busy months are well down.

YES we can believe bookings are down for the peak months. Prices for half decent Apartments in Cap d,Agde at this time, are getting very expensive, We could book a five star hotel for 2 weeks all inclusive In the Canaries, for much less than it is costing us for our holiday here this year.
How much longer we will continue to pay these rates. remains doubtful.

Well, the problem is the costs have always been high in France. And then they increased the taxes a lot the past few years, plus the real estate prices haven't done down at all. So the prices have stayed about the same (during the peak season, Eden was at 350/night in 2009, is still at 350/night in 2013), but businesses obviously make less profit.

Meanwhile, in Spain, salaries and real estate have gone way down. So prices can be a lot more attractive.
