Turn right at Montpellier or Left at Toulouse
You'll have a great time in Perpignan, for those that stay in Perpignan rather than Blackpool with sun de mar , it's a beautiful old cosmopolitan city but with lovely old buildings and quarters, some good bars, top restaurants but most of all, friendly and welcoming locals, and the beach and bars at Canet are only a 35 minute bus ride away, and the Kebabs are sensational too!
