Docking

This is a sheltered fishing port which may have room for yachts too, but beware that the east of the leading line is very shallow. There is also a submerged breakwater projecting fron that side at the entrance.

The Harbourmaster welcomes yachts and does his best to find a space.

This port is uncomfortable in strong southerlies.
