 El Kantaoui : Profile
A very pleasent town located about 5NM north of Sousse.
Position 35°53' N,10°36' E.
Customs and Immigration officers are on duty 24 hours. Their offices are on the starboard side past the entrance and the boatyard.
The arrival quay is to port of the entrance and the Port Captain's office is in the white building on that quay. Customs and immigration are on the opposite side, by the travelift. Docking fees for longer stays are quite reasonable but advance bookings are essential for winter stays (2 or 3 months in advance and advance payment of 50% required). The marina is full in winter.
A pleasant marina with a limited range of repair service. In onshore winds a swell makes itself fel inside the marina especially on the western quay (reception dock) by the Capitainerie.
