Rental houseboat on the Canal du Midi


Constructed at the end of the 16th century to facilitate navigation and the transport of goods, the Canal du Midi is 240 km long, and connects the city of Toulouse to the Mediterranean Sea.

It's geographical and scenic importance earned it a place on the list as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in the early 1990s, and today it represents one of the most fascinating destinations for those who want to explore France from a completely alternative point of view.

So what are you waiting for? Plan an original trip with a taste of yesteryear: rent a houseboat on the Canal du Midi, and create the perfect moment to spend some time with family or friends on the water!

Did you know that some houseboats can be rented without a licence? Due to their low speed, you can sail safely without a license!


How much does it cost to rent a houseboat on the Canal du Midi ?


The price of renting a houseboat on the Canal du Midi depends on several factors, such as the year the boat was built, the season, the length of the rental and the equipment on board.

Here are the average rental prices:


  • daily - you can rent a houseboat for between 125€ and 300€ per day
  • weekly - the cost ranges between 1,500€ and 2,300€ reais.

Original adventure along the French shores


A holiday aboard a houseboat is undoubtedly suitable for the whole family, and for all generations. And why not bring your four-legged friend on board too? Make him or her part of this wonderful adventure through the French landscapes and set sail with the whole group!

Synonymous with originality, a trip along the Canal du Midi will certainly change your perception of time: colours that seem to have come straight out of a painting, villages shrouded in magic and authenticity. Take the opportunity to enjoy breakfast under the sunrise, or lunch under the shade of a tree. Relaxation is the key word here.


What is there to discover along the Canal du Midi?


What better destination than a UNESCO World Heritage Site to spend your next holiday? Surprising, fun, romantic and full of scenic, cultural and historical attractions. How could one resist such a mix?

One of the most popular stretches of the canal is the one from Montpellier to Toulouse, and it's also one of the most fascinating.

Another place of interest awaits you beyond the hill of Fonseranes, where the construction of a canal incorporated into a bridge crossing the river in the area has, over the years, prevented flooding and allowed cargo ships access.


Can you sail without a licence on the Canal du Midi?



Here is an introduction to some of the navigation rules in force in France:

To be able to drive a boat without a licence, the engine power must be less than 6 hp. Above this power, you must either have a coastal permit, which allows you to sail up to 11 nautical miles from the coast (compared with the 6 miles (about 10 km) possible without a licence), or a river permit suitable for navigation on inland waters.

Houseboats generally reach a speed of 11 km/h, thus not exceeding the maximum speed of 12 km/h allowed for navigation without a licence.
