Lérins islands and Cap d'Antibes: the anchorages

Sainte-Marguerite and Saint-Honorat, a mile off Cannes, with the channel between them for easterly winds and the north face of Sainte-Marguerite for westerlies. Buoys are compulsory around Saint-Honorat, whose abbey is visited on foot. Opposite, Cap d'Antibes offers the Olivette cove and La Garoupe, and Port Vauban hosts the largest yachts in Europe.
