Guide

Approach and anchoring

Inland waterway approach from the Canal du Midi branch serving Agde, reached from the étang and lying just short of the round lock of Agde. Boats lie alongside the banks. Low air draught under road bridges limits sailing yachts. No swell, no tide. Proceed at canal speed limit, around 6 km/h, to avoid bank wash.

Practical

Holding in soft mud. Agde visitor quay lies 1 NM to the SW for water, waste and shops. Marine Palumbo boatyard sits at the same distance for haul-out or repairs.
