Canal du midi

Embark on a wonderful journey on the Canal du Midi


Canal du Midi

Let us welcome you aboard one of our many comfortable, licence-free Penichettes and help you explore the Canal du Midi – one of the world’s most famous, beautiful and historic waterways !

Whether you are looking for peace and quiet and lovely scenery; or experiencing the thrill of cruising into world famous cities such as Carcassonne or Toulouse, then a visit to the Canal du Midi never disappoints.

It’s the one of the world’s oldest canals, built to link the Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea, and passes through many different environments, including the wine growing region of Languedoc and at its eastern end the sandy beaches of the southern French coast.

The trees that line each side of the Canal du Midi, as well as the waterway itself, paint a charming and memorable picture.
Cruise your way through the 91 locks of the Canal du Midi on the Pénichette of your choice and discover historically rich cities such as Carcassonne and Toulouse.

Did you know that the Canal du Midi was classified as a UNESCO world heritage site? Not only “one of the most remarkable feats of civil engineering in modern times … but a work of art”. This amazing feat of engineering links the Atlantic Ocean with the Mediterranean.
Experience it on a Penichette with Locaboat!
