Carcassonne Travel Guide

France

Carcassonne is a city of around 49,600 people in southern France. It is inland rather than coastal, so the city is not a beach destination.

Travellers arriving by air can use Carcassonne Airport, also known as CCF. There are no notable named beaches within 40 kilometres of the city, so coastal trips require travelling farther afield.
