• Banyuls-sur-mer is located 40 km south from Perpignan and 215 km north from Barcelona. Perpignan may be reached by train (TGV) from Paris and major cities in France, as well as from Barcelona (Spain). Local trains run on a regular schedule between Perpignan and Banyuls. The ride takes half an hour and the school venue is a 15-minute walk from Banyuls station. If you travel by air, you can fly to Perpignan airport from Paris. At the airport you will find a bus shuttle to go to the Perpignan train station and there trains to Banyuls. Flying to Barcelona, which is connected to Perpignan by TGV, is an option to consider.
