Guide

Approach and anchoring

Anchor on hard sand among the posidonia, in about 9 m in the middle of the bay. Large rocks lie all around, and some break the surface. In 2023 anchoring close inshore was not allowed, but boats could lie outside the buoys about 200 m off. The maestrale blows in hard from the Strait of Bonifacio. The current can switch between east and west.

Practical

The environmental fee covers anchoring. In late September 2025 no one came to collect it for a night on a buoy.
