Guide

Approach and anchoring

Approach from the east, clear water close to the cliff. Sand and weed bottom, holding fair on the sand strips. Shelter from NW through N and NE, also from W thanks to the headland. Open to SE and S. Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat harbour lies 0.4 NM north, a straightforward bolt-hole if the wind shifts.

Practical

No services in the cove. Port de Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat at 0.4 NM N for berths, water, fuel. Port des Fourmis at Beaulieu 1.2 NM N as a second option.
