Guide
Approach and anchoring
Open water approach. Sand holding. Exposed to S, SE and E quadrants. Port de Cazaux lies 1.5 NM NE and a canal pontoon 2.1 NM NE serve as fallback berths.
Practical
Forain anchorage, no services. Port de Cazaux 1.5 NM NE for water, fuel and shore access.
Ashore
The water shoals to wading depth near the shore, so crews can land on foot from the boat straight onto the beach, where the sand carries shaded areas. Easy going for beginners and for children.
