We are not any more really  near Pont-de-Montvert,   but the residents pontois will descend at least once in Florac during their stay, preferably Thursday for the so picturesque weekly market.
It is thus necessary to benefit from it to test the swimmingpool arranged by the municipality. You will not find in Florac of postcard of this place "Because it's too ugly" affirm the newspaper seller.

A little severe if one judges the crowd which visit the beach summer afternoons.

The access is at the southern end of the city where it is always possible to parked. We are on banks of the Tarnon which has just received the water of the Mimente river.
A barrage downstream created a water surface of beautiful size. The Tarnon widens on more than two hundred meters with a depth reaching more than two meters along the threshold. Close to the nautical base, sands and rollers cover the left bank which is most accessible and most animated. A way leads to the barrage where you can cross naked feet.

The site misses character, enclosed between buildings without charm and the deviation of N106 but to swim there is always a happiness. The water is at good temperature, the current unperceivable.
Two diving boards decorate the place.
It is also possible to park close to the agricultural cooperative. The promenade goes pleasantly up at the right bank and will guide you to the barrage where a small meadow and a diving board constitutes a nice place.
Shopping done, fresh and dispos as after a good bath, you can go back up in the mountains, to Pont-de-Montvert  (preferably by secondary road Departementale 35, by Ruas, Rûnes, Fraissinet, more luminous).
