The Canal d'Arles à Fos is a productive coarse fishing destination in Provence connecting the historic city of Arles to the port of Fos-sur-Mer, offering excellent opportunities for carp, pike, zander, and bream fishing across its 25-kilometer stretch. Anglers can enjoy extended sessions with night fishing permitted and the flexibility of bivouacking along the banks, making it ideal for dedicated fishing trips in the Bouches-du-Rhône. A Carte de Pêche (annual fishing licence) issued by the local AAPPMA is required, and the canal welcomes boat traffic, adding a dynamic element to the fishing environment while providing diverse habitats for substantial fish populations.
