Strolling through the colourful streets of Mouré and Port d’Avall, bougainvillea blooming on the façades, the birds singing, sunshine – spring is here! Nature and colours are in full bloom!
In this magical, flower-filled setting, we love spring, the temperatures are mild, Collioure is full of life, without the crowds, and we can enjoy the sights at our own pace, spotting new and unusual details every time we go. It’s a wonderful opportunity to try out the “Collioure, the journey begins” application at our own pace!
It’s always a good idea to go for a stroll along Collioure’s footpaths or to embark on a boat trip out at sea sea along the rocky coastline, what an escape!

Nature awakens in spring, transforming the narrow streets of Mouré into a Fauvism painting!
Getting the full experience of Le Mouré and Port d’Avall
As you stroll through the narrow streets of Le Mouré and Port d’Avall, the bougainvilleas and plumbagos make us look up, and all around us is an explosion of colour. There’s no doubt about it, it’s spring!
The sensory experience doesn’t stop there, as jasmine mingles with lemon and orange trees to add fragrance to our walk!
Holiday in the air: the beaches and coves!
The call of the sea invites us to dip our toes in the water and get a preview of the warm summer holidays!
For even more escapism, let yourself be tempted by a boat trip out at sea, and enjoy a dreamlike experience in June!
For kayaking outings, you’ll have to wait a little longer.
Spring is the perfect time to go for a walk!
A hike to the Tour Madeloc for a 360° panoramic view of the Vermeille coast, a walk along the coastal path near the sea, or a walk in the hills above Collioure to admire the monuments and Collioure from above! It’s a tough choice!
Hop aboard the tourist train
How about taking a seat on the little train that winds its way through the vineyards?
The little train in spring is a must for observing the changing vegetation, the flowers that colour the hillsides. Breathtaking scenery and a gentle breeze make this an unforgettable experience.
After this experience through the vineyards, take in the views from Fort Saint Elme, before heading back down to Collioure after a stop at Port Vendres!
Enjoy the local entertainment and events!
This year’s spring highlights include the anchovy festival, Saint Jean evening festival, and the piano festival! Brass bands and sardana dancing will also be livening up the streets as soon as the good weather arrives!
2 guided tours not to be missed!
Make your stay even more enjoyable with a guided tour of the Fauvism Trail and a guided tour of the Château Royal to learn more about the fascinating history of this landmark.
A taste of the local cuisine!
It’s impossible to finish this visit without tasting the Collioure anchovies, this historic know-how is attributed to women, the only ones certified to produce them. A wine tasting of PDO Collioure for its savoury, woody notes completes this culinary discovery.
