Transports in Perpignan
As the city is quite close to the Spanish border, our hoteliers recommend using the A9 motorway when arriving from the south. This thoroughfare also connects other cities such as Barcelona and Montpellier. Those arriving from other portions of France can employ either the E15 or the N116 (both French national routes). Trains are serviced by the nearby Gare de Perpignan while the closest airport is Perpignan–Rivesaltes Airport. Domestic and certain international flights are supported.
WHEN TO GO TO PERPIGNAN ?
Due to its proximity to the Mediterranean Sea, Perpignan tends to be rather warm throughout the year. However, it should still be noted that storms emerging from the south and west can cause rather bleak weather conditions during the late autumn and winter. Our hoteliers recommend a visit during the spring or the early autumn. This is also a wise option for those who are looking to avoid the numerous tourists present during the height of the summer.
