By way of derogation, the representative of the State services decided to authorize access to the beaches, ponds and water bodies as of this weekend, between 6 am and 9 pm.

If it will be possible to bathe, to walk, to fish or of the activities of pleasure, neither question of spending all day there to make idleness as before.

Sunbathing is indeed prohibited, as is the rental of deckchairs and mattresses. There was no question of having a barbecue, a picnic, drinking a small beer or doing beach volleyball. Groupings of more than 5 people are indeed prohibited. And those who do not comply with these restrictions could be fined.

The Prefect of Aude authorizes from Saturday May 16 at 6 am, the re-opening of the shores of the Pond and all the beaches - huge - of Leucate in certain ways.
