Guide
Approach and anchoring
Approach from the south by rounding Cap Cepet. Sand over weed, so drop on a clear sand patch, usually in 4 to 8 metres, keeping to the 5 to 6 metre band to stay off the marked posidonia. Good shelter from the mistral in the north-west, north and west, holding well in strong gusts. Open to the south and south-east, and a slight roll sets in at night when the wind drops or an easterly swell works in.
Practical
Forain anchorage with no services. Nearest shelter at Saint-Elme 1.8 NM northeast, with the village of Le Lazaret 2.1 NM northeast for provisioning and a pontoon.
Ashore
The shore below is taken up by naturist beaches, the first three reserved for naturists, with no shops behind. Cap Sicié rises about 352 metres above the islets of the Deux Frères.
