Guide

Approach and anchoring

Approach from the south. The entrance is tight between two rocky headlands, keep to the middle and sound in. Only sheltered from NW through N, open to everything east of that. No room to swing for more than two or three boats.

Practical

Forain anchoring on sand, pockets of posidonia to avoid. No facilities, no beach infrastructure, no provisioning. Petit Méjean 0.9 NM W, Niolon fishing hamlet 1 NM NE for basic supplies and a couple of restaurants.

Ashore

Sentier du littoral links Érévine to Niolon in 20 to 30 minutes on foot, then continues east to La Vesse and Corbière. Snorkelling spot in the clear water along the eastern wall. Côte Bleue train line runs just above the cliffs, Niolon station is the nearest access point from the GR 51.
