Guide
Approach and anchoring
Sand bottom. Field open to the east and southeast sectors, some protection from the NW when the libeccio swings. Approach from the gulf keeping clear of the Sanguinaires passage to the north. Pick up a buoy, no free anchoring on the posidonia beds.
Practical
Day mooring on buoys only, no infrastructure on site. Port Tino Rossi at 4.4 NM to the NW across the gulf is the closest fuel and supply stop. Dingy Dock at 4.9 NM to the N.
