Guide

Approach and anchoring

Approach on a rising tide through the marked channel of the Léguer. Mud gives good holding. Protection from N and NE, plus SW, S and SE; the bed is open to the W, the direction of the ebb stream. Charted soundings here are dated and read low, with a sandbar limiting water at the entrance while depths hold better upstream towards Lannion. At the berth marked with an anchor symbol, expect only about 0,50 m in the meander close to the bank just before the south cardinal mark.

Practical

Water available. Keel boats can take the ground alongside the Corderie quay, which is fitted with ladders and mooring bollards. Port du Yaudet lies 0,3 NM W and Beg Hent 0,5 NM W for the nearest pontoon and dinghy landing.

Ashore

Footpath climbs in 400 m to the chapel of Notre-Dame du Yaudet, built on the site of a Gallo-Roman hillfort excavated from 1991 to 2002 by a joint Oxford and Rennes-2 team. The GR 34 sentier des douaniers passes through the village and runs along the estuary.
