Strong winds fanned the flame, which spread south to the seaside town of Torreilles, covering an area of more than 370 acres. Over 3,000 tourists were evacuated from the town as the flames threatened to engulf camping sites.
Hundreds of firefighters have been battling the blaze since Wednesday afternoon in the area surrounding the small town of Barcares on the Mediterranean coast.
