Guide

Approach and anchoring

Approach from seaward keeping clear of the rocky ledges that run north from the harbour entrance. Holding is on sand. The anchorage is sheltered from E, SE and S winds but fully open to the prevailing W and NW swell from the Channel, so it is a fair-weather option only. Port Diélette harbour entrance lies 0.3 nm south.

Practical

No facilities at the anchorage itself. Full services in Port Diélette 0.3 nm south: visitor berths, water, diesel, toilets and showers at the marina run by Ports de la Manche.
