Docking
The marina is located in the old harbor, La Darse. Visiting yachts are berthed east of the quay.
More marinas can be found at Beaulieu-sur-Mer, Saint-Jean and Port des Fourmis all on the eastern side of Cap Ferrat.
There is no anchoring in the center of the bay as it is reserved for cruise ships.
There are no mooring buoys in Rade du Villefranche and the Rade du St Hospice (Anse de Lilong and Anse des Fosses). These are administered by the marina.
It is possible to anchor in the Baie des Fourmis.
