Mediterranean harbour and town of Port Vendres, Roman Portus Veneris, seated at the southern end of the French region Languedoc-Roussillon and close to the border of spanish Catalonia arose on a small an well backed bay. After a changeful history today Port-Vendres is foremost a harbour of fishery and yachting. It is very busy there, because the local fishery fleet is the most active one on the entire Roussillion coast.
