304 berths at Port de Plaisance de Concarneau on the west bank, max draught 2.5 metres. Diesel on the fuel pontoon. Water, electricity, showers, WC, chandlery and boatyard within the port enclosure. All shops and supermarkets within 500 metres.

Ashore

Ville Close, the granite-walled old town on its islet, linked by footbridge at 400 metres from the marina. Musée de la Pêche on rue Vauban documents Concarneau's industrial tuna and sardine fleet. Plage des Sables Blancs at 2 km north.

History

Concarneau's Ville Close was fortified by Vauban between 1683 and 1695 on medieval foundations. The port became France's third fishing port by tonnage in the 20th century and still hosts an offshore tuna fleet.
