 By
car, Palavas is only about 12 km from Montpellier.
From the UK for instance, the Eurotunnel can be a fast alternative
to ferries. But bear in mind it's a long way away! The expensive
alternative is SNCF's motorail, which saves time, and
accommodation costs (book this through Rail Europe).
To give you an idea, the motorway from Calais to Montpellier
will cost you approximately €60.
