Guide
Approach and anchoring
Approach from seaward in fair weather. Seabed is sand with patches of seaweed, so drop clear of darker weed to ensure the anchor bites. Sheltered from NW through W to SW; open to winds with any east or south component.
Practical
No facilities on site. Nearest shelter is Port at 0.6 nm to the W, with Port de Trévignon 6.9 nm NE as a fallback in a rising swell.
