Approach and anchoring
Anchoring is forbidden to protect the posidonia meadow. Organised mooring buoys are deployed in summer by the ZMEL. Keep clear of the swim zone marked by yellow buoys close to the shore.
Practical
Daytime stop only, mooring buoys managed locally. Fair shelter from SW, S and SE. Port Vieux lies 0.8 NM NW, Nouveau Port 0.9 NM N, both offering all services if the wind shifts or the buoys are full.
Ashore
