Restaurant near Saint-Cyprien

Le France — 21 Quai Pierre Forgas, Port-Vendres

A seaside restaurant 15 km from Saint-Cyprien

Saint-Cyprien has one of the largest marinas on the Catalan coast. Port-Vendres, 15 km away, is different: it's a fishing port that has resisted becoming a yachting harbour. No luxury yachts on Quai Pierre Forgas — just trawlers, fish crates and people at work. Le France has stood on this quay for years, and its terrace looks straight onto that scene. Something rare on this coast.

Le France's pizzeria alone is worth the trip from Saint-Cyprien. Dough made fresh every day, generous toppings — more than 20 pizzas on the menu, tomato-based and white. Eat in or take away from the harbour. Handy for an improvised meal: order from the quay, pick it up, then eat on the rocks along the coast or take the boxes home.
