Guide

Approach and anchoring

Approach from the west between the Île Agot and the mainland. Strong tidal streams run across the entrance and many drying rocks lie around the bay, so a recent SHOM chart is essential. Open to winds from NE through SE. VHF 9.

Practical

Mooring buoys and a drying harbour run by the local commune. Water tap on the quay. No fuel on site. Village shops, bakery and restaurants within 400 m of the port.

Ashore

Sentier des Douaniers (GR 34) runs past the anchorage in both directions, with the Pointe de la Garde Guérin to the west giving a panoramic view of the coast. Golf de Dinard-Saint-Briac, one of the oldest links courses on the continent, lies 1 km inland.

History

The Dinard-Saint-Briac golf course was laid out in 1887 by British residents and is the second-oldest golf club still operating in continental Europe. The village kept a small fishing and pilotage fleet through the 19th century.
