Guide
Approach and anchoring
Anchoring forbidden inside the cove under the regional mooring plan for the Côte Bleue marine park. Transit only. Bottom of sand and seagrass, open to the north but exposed to the strong mistral funnelling onto this coast.
Practical
No services and no legal overnight stop. Carro 1.2 NM W offers a small fishing harbour with limited visitor berths; Sausset-les-Pins 1.8 NM E has a 570-berth marina with fuel and water.
Ashore
The Sentier du Littoral runs along the cliff-top on both sides of the cove, inside the Parc marin de la Côte Bleue created in 1983. The park protects one of the best-studied Posidonia beds in the western Mediterranean.
