Imagine getting lost in a jazz solo while gazing out on the Mediterranean as a boat passes by. I have been to dozens of concert venues, but never a more enchanting one than this.

Wonderful venue, reminded me of the beautiful Minnack in Cornwall, UK. Well banked, so easy to see the stage, not cramped, perfect location (see how close the catamaran in the sea is, in my photo) and very easy to walk to from beautiful Sete main town. We went several nights in a row to watch the Worldwide Festival performances and it couldn't have been more perfect. Fantastic bar and large flat area with excellent views at the very top. We're going back, it was so good!

The théâtre de la mer is more than a place offering concerts for all kinds of tastes.
The breathtaking backdrop of the Mediterranean, the rocks already are sufficiënt to create an unforgetable experience.
At night, with the light effects sheer magic takes over, one feels transported in a different world.
Goran Bergovic, Georgy Fame, Philippe Catherine, just to mention a few heavy weights, in this shrine is like being in an other dimension.
Do I recommend it? You bet!

Sete Fiesta Festival was the reason of our trip and we already wait for the next year one!
Great venue with stage surrounded by water however....
Not easy to access for disabled/wheelchair users!
Not rain secured so if you want to avoid getting soaked like we did-take an umbrella coz when it rains... it pours!!!
Walkable distance from town!
Amazing view right from the top!

What a fab location for live music, in the old fort, facing the sea. Seating was not designated so arrive early if you are fussy. But the amphitheatre raking was good.

We wondered why we could not walk through this place on our promenade and then we realized where we were. This is an extraordinary reuse of an old citadelle, right on the sea. Come see a show here in warm weather.
