Guide

Approach and anchoring

The prefectoral order of 12 October 2023 sets sixteen buoyed zones in the 300 m strip from Pointe Marin to Pointe Dunkerque: swimming areas, motor-free zones, a water-ski lane, access channels and two no-anchoring zones. Inside all of them speed is limited to 3 knots and anchoring is banned, so drop the hook outside the yellow buoys. Speed is also limited to 5 knots between Îlet Duquesnay, the MA4 mark and the Club Med pontoon.

Practical

Beach and pontoon for the dinghy, with water available according to Navily. Marina du Marin is 1.5 miles to the north-east.

Ashore
