Location of this ?.
Earlier Banyuls was a fishing village but is now more recognized for its wine and the hills around the city are covered with vineyards. Banyuls lies in the southeast part of the province Languedoc-Roussillon that is called Pyrénées-Orientales and is the French part of Catalonia that before 1642 belonged to Spain. Before Spain’s creation 1479, through the merging of Castile and The Crown of Aragon, Banyuls was a part of the latter. A mighty Mediterranean empire that reached over almost half of Spain, parts of Italy and Greece, Sicily, Majorca, Sardinia and Corsica. A bit north if Banyuls, in Collioure, is an old royal castle from this time and the area is marked by its Spanish roots. Language is both French and Catalan, and the village of Lliva is still Spanish although it is in the midst of France.
The population is approx 6000, which multiplies during the tourist season. The centre is fairly small and is characterised by beautiful old houses and narrow streets. In the midst of the centre is a big square that often hosts performances. Across the boardwalk from the square lies Banyuls biggest beach. Here there also are a playground and the tourist information office whose personnel is very helpful and speaks good English. There are also a couple of bigger beaches some hundred yards to the north.
South of the centre beach lies the marina and the Paris university observatory. The sea from Banyuls and a bit south is a marine reserve and have a rich wildlife. You can study i
