General Info
This is a very pleasant seaside town just east of Cap Frehel, 8nm west of St Malo. It now provides one of the few all tide ports in this area. An attractive path has been built along the base of the cliffs from the marina and into the town.
Position 48° 38.2’N , 02º 14.8’W (marina)
Docking
- France NW – St Cast Marina
The building of a breakwater joining several rocky islets to the existing breakwater has allowed an all tide marina to be created here.
The bay in front of the town still provides an anchorage, but unless of shoal draft, it is quite a distance from the shore and rather exposed.
The access channel to the marina runs parallel to the extended breakwater. On rounding the head of the breakwater the port entrance is situated between the Bec Rond Rock (+5 meters) and the La Feuillade Rock. To the East, a pontoon for fishing boats and three pontoons for large pleasure craft run perpendicular to the quay where the port is dredged to a depth of 2.25m below chart datum. To the West, five pontoons, with a depth of 1.25m below chart datum, run parallel to the Valets shore platform.
A Cardinal South perch marker marks the southern extremity of the breakwater separating the marina from the swinging moorings to the west, and which is submerged at high water.
In the marina, mooring officers (English speaking) available 7/7 from 08:00 to 21:00 during the season to greet incoming boats and guide them to their berths.
