Approach and anchoring

Entrance oriented NNE, clearly identified by two white daymarks in line on the east bank and a red tower at the end of the west pier. Inner basin dries, outer moorings stay afloat with about 2.1 m at low water springs. Beware of the rocks off Beg Morg on the east side of the entrance.

Practical

Moorings on fore-and-aft lines managed by the commune of Moëlan-sur-Mer. Water at the slipway, no fuel, no electricity. One restaurant on the west quay. Nearest shops at Moëlan-sur-Mer, 5 km inland.
