: To clarify the appeal of Cap d’Agde the main feature is that it is virtually a whole town where you can go nude anywhere (although not common in the evening). Many people also go because of the swinging side, there are several raunchy nightclubs, numerous like minded people, also open sex on part of the beach (not in high season) - but can easily be avoided. We go because of the sexually charged atmosphere, and we would not go otherwise - there are many better places for scenery, accommodation and the actual beach.
: Can you tell us about Wreck Beach. What is the appeal of it? How does it compare, or differ, to Cap d’Agde.
Well, Wreck Beach and Cap D'agde are as different as night and day. Wreck is not a resort - just a beach. But oh, what a beach! I really don't know how to describe it, except that it is a very crowded, party beach with an alternative atmosphere. Thousands of people, mostly young, packed like sardines.
Food, drink, music and fabulous scenery. Its also a well run beach and during the summer there are lots of activities and beach events.
Anyway, its kind off the beaten track, being way out here in western Canada. But its about the best good time you could have for free :)
