Type
Harbour

Small tidal harbour on the south shore of the Bassin d'Arcachon, in the commune of La Teste-de-Buch.

Guide

Approach and anchoring

Approach via the inner channels of the Bassin d'Arcachon. The harbour dries at low water springs and is usable around high water. Follow local withies and buoys, which are shifted as the sands move.

Practical

Moorings mostly for local flat-bottomed pinasses and oyster boats. Limited visitor facilities, no fuel berth on site. The nearest fuel and full services are at Port de La Teste or Port d'Arcachon.

Ashore

The Bassin d'Arcachon oyster parks surround the harbour, and several producers sell direct from their cabins along the shore. La Hume beach and village are 500 m to the north-east, with bakery and small shops.
