Port La Rochelle

Day and night beacons. Electricity on pontoon or dockside depending on basin, weather reports posted every morning, 24-hour code access to sanitary facilities, fuel pumps... Today, Les Minimes is the largest port on the Atlantic seaboard. Passengers and locals alike flock to Les Minimes, and not just to take a boat trip. Les Minimes is also a pleasant place to be, with its beach, seaside promenade, restaurants and, above all, an ice cream parlour renowned for its inimitable sorbets! Smart boaters will have no trouble getting to the city center, thanks to the sea bus and, of course, the bicycle!

While La Rochelle boasts one of Europe's largest marinas, this basin is an exception. Sailors can access the beaching harbor, the Bassin des Chalutiers, as well as the Bassin des Yachts after a short passage between the two towers. A total of 390 berths are available, including 80 for visitors. The Bassin des Chalutiers accommodates large yachts from 17 m to 50 m, while the Havre d'échouage is ideal for sailors wishing to visit the city center. The port is well equipped for easy access, with gangways fitted with anti-slip strips and reserved parking spaces for cars...
