THE BEST SWIMMING SPOTS OF AUDE
The Aude offers a wide variety of places for swimming, in freshwater or seawater. As such, Ginestas is close to most of the interesting places. We recommend that you try the rivers around Ginestas, they are quieter and more wooded than beaches in summertimes.
You'll find below a few pictures of the spots where you can swim around Ginestas.

Lac de Jouarres La Cesse

La Ribaute Le gouffre de l'oeil doux
