Béziers, France, is often overlooked as a holiday destination in favour of those towns and cities located a little further south on the Mediterranean coastline. However, those in the UK should certainly consider making the trip, as easy access makes it suitable for both a two week holiday and a quick weekend break. There are direct flights from both Bristol and London, as well as simple transfers from Montpellier, Carcassonne, and Perpignan airports.
Fortunately for travellers arriving into Béziers this month, the heavy rain fall of the previous two months does begin to decrease in November, although at 71 mm on average it's still considered reasonably heavy for the region. Towards the end of the month, visitors should notice a substantial difference, with much drier weather. Temperatures reduce slightly as winter arrives, ranging between 7 and 15 degrees Celsius.
