Guide

Approach and anchoring

Approach from the Rade de Brest, keeping the Île Ronde beacon clear to starboard when coming from the west. Protection from E through S to SW, exposed to the NW wind that blows straight down the Élorn estuary. Strong tidal streams in the main rade up to 3 knots on springs, much weaker inside the anse.

Practical

Three visitor buoys, sand bottom if picking up on the anchor. Water tap reported ashore. No fuel, no showers. Rostiviec slipway and club lie 1.3 nm NW, Moulin Mer sailing centre 1.5 nm S for dinghy access and basic services.

Ashore

Anse de Moulin Mer oyster park visible at low water. GR 34 coastal path passes above the anchorage, 2 km walk to the Daoulas abbey founded in the 12th century. Logonna-Daoulas village, 2.5 km north, has a bakery and a grocer.
