Guide
Approach and anchoring
Reached by the Rance maritime, downstream of the tidal barrage. Strong reversing currents on flood and ebb, with a renverse to watch on VHF 13 for lock operations. Sand bottom. Shelter from N, NE, E and SE sectors.
Practical
No facilities on the mooring itself. Centre Nautique La Richardais is 1 NM NW for sailing-school services and a pontoon. Port Minic is 1.5 NM south on the Saint-Malo bank.
Ashore
The Barrage de la Rance, commissioned in 1966, is the world's first tidal power station still in regular operation, 240 MW installed. A cycle and pedestrian path crosses the barrage towards Dinard, about 1 km from the mooring shore.
