Guide
Approach and anchoring
Sheltered from north round to south-east, open to the west. The Grand Cul-de-Sac Marin is covered by the prefectoral order of 15 November 2021, which bans free anchoring in the national park core and its adjacent waters and sends boats to marked mooring zones. Check your position on the Nav&Co app before letting go.
Practical
Mud and weed bottom. Beach ashore. The Petit-Canal harbour is 0.3 miles east, at the foot of the Marches des Esclaves.
