THE NATURIST villages of Aphrodite and Club Oasis (opened in 1990 as an extension of the old Aphrodite Village) are in the Roussillon region of the South of France. They are an oasis of tranquillity: no through traffic, no regular discos, an uncrowded wide sand and shingle beach, and a family atmosphere.
Both resorts are located in the naturist section of the Port Leucate development, 22 miles north of Perpignan, which is on a narrow four mile strip of land with sandy beaches on one side and an 8,000 acre salt lake at the foot of the Corbières mountains on the other.
APHRODITE VILLAGE FACILITIES Aphrodite is a self-contained village, comprising a self-service store, restaurant, take-away, boutique for souvenirs and beach articles, newsagents and laundry. There are also card-operated international phone boxes. The shops are open from early June to mid-September. A post office, further shops and bistros can be found year-round in the old village of Leucate, some four miles away. Sports facilities include a fresh-water swimming pool, three tennis courts, a boating marina and windsurfing. Tuition is available in some of these sports. There is textile horse riding and sailing at nearby Port Leucate.
CLUB OASIS FACILITIES The focal point of the village is the swimming pool, faced by the club house with restaurant and bar. A modern tennis court is just behind. The shopping centre in the neighbouring Aphrodite naturist village is also open to residents of Club Oasis. Further shops, bistros and the post office can be found in the village of Leucate some four miles away. There is textile horse riding, windsurfing and sailing on the lagoon too.

ENTERTAINMENT Occasional shows, barbecues, etc. are organised at both resorts. These are kept to a minimum in order to preserve tranquillity in the resort, but a wide range of entertainment can be found at Port Leucate which is only a short drive away.
EXCURSIONS Whilst there are no organised excursions, the area holds a variety of interests. The Roussillon region extends from the Mediterranean to the Pyrenees, with colourful vineyards and orchards. The landscape is dotted with old towns and villages, places of pilgrimage, monasteries and churches. The towns of Narbonne and Perpignan are of historic interest. Carcassonne is a picture-book fortified medieval town: a moat, drawbridges, ramparts, a castle and the 11C church of St Nazaire put you in a time warp. A visit to the nearby Safari Park at Sigean will long be remembered. Covering over 510 acres, you can take an eye-opening four mile drive to see many of the 150 or more species of animals settled there.
The duty-free Principality of Andorra and the Sunday market at Rosas (Spain) are shoppers’ paradises. (Passport required.) Local produce includes wine, peaches, almonds, fish, oysters and mussels.
