Le Petit Travers, Mediterranean beach in La Grande-Motte, France.
The beach extends along sand dunes that separate the Mediterranean Sea from the Etang de l'Or lagoon, creating a natural barrier system.
The site underwent extensive transformation in 2015, including the removal of a road section on the dune to restore natural coastal dynamics.
The area represents a balance between urban development and nature conservation, with dedicated zones for recreation and environmental protection.
The beach features 80 access points with parking facilities and remains accessible throughout the day and night for visitors.
The location received one million cubic meters of sediment from the Rhone River to combat coastal erosion in the Aigues Mortes Bay.
