Paddle Muscat
Presentation
A unique paddle trip with tasting.
I wanted to do a different water activity, something out of the ordinary. I was told about something, I was told "Why don't you try the Paddle Muscat in Frontignan?
Ok, I jump at the chance. I call Jean Christophe from Tiki Center. He tells me there's room for the 19th of July and that he'll reserve a paddle for me, but that I have to pay at the Tourist Office shop. That's fine. I meet again at 7pm, 12 people on the parking of the roundabout of the windsurfers of Frontignan-Plage.

After a short course on land and JC's explanation about the fragile sea bed, we can sail. We leave for an hour and a half of paddle on the Ingril pond. We sail calmly towards the canal of the Rhône à Sète, there is not too much wind, it's nice.
I still find it hard to stand up all the time, it's not easy to keep your balance on these boards. On the other hand, on my knees, it's much easier and really fun! With us, there are two children, they don't have any balance problems, on the contrary, they split the water. "The stand-up paddle? It's almost too easy!

Arriving at the edge of the Aresquiers wood, we notice a 2CV in the distance. We join Yves from trouvetonvigneron.com. He has concocted a real wine and muscat tasting for us. A real treat! And it is accompanied by local products.
Our tasting bar? A paddle of course! Our chairs? Again, a paddle! We are arranged in a star shape, around JC who tells us about the wines and makes us taste, among others, dry, sweet and sparkling Muscat. For those who do not wish to taste, it is possible to book the same tour without tasting. So to join us, book your walks and activities online.
