Our marinas in Brittany and the Atlantic coast
Would you like to choose a marina in Brittany or on the Atlantic coast for your next boating season in France? The Port Adhoc group will be happy to welcome you to one of its four French marinas located in these regions. Choose from the port of Paimpol, the port of Soubise, the marina of Port Médoc or the port of Bayonne Anglet.
The port of Paimpol
In Paimpol, our marina is also called Port Adhoc Paimpol. It's a dry port on the English Channel, and one of the main harbors in northern Brittany that enables yachtsmen to store their boats on racks on land. Boats are stored in a secure, supervised area, and can be launched at very short notice: the operation is carried out at the owner's request, every day of the year.
Near the port of Paimpol, yachtsmen who wish to take advantage of the season to sail in France can discover theisland of Bréhat, located just opposite Paimpol, as well as the wonders of the North Brittany coast: the pink granite coast, the archipelago of seven islands, the Emerald Coast, Saint-Malo, Cancale or, further afield, the bay of Mont-Saint-Michel.
Soubise harbour
The port of Soubise welcomes French and foreign yachtsmen who have chosen the Charente-Maritime area as their cruising grounds. Like Port Adhoc Paimpol, it is a dry port, but this time overlooking the Charente River and the French Atlantic coast. It is located just 5 nautical miles from the ocean.
In the port of Soubise, monohulls and multihulls up to 53 feet in length are parked on racks or on cradles, and owners benefit from a large technical support center. It's the perfect port to winter in, to have your boat refitted or to enjoy a season of sailing in the surrounding area of France. For example, La Rochelle, Ile de Ré, Ile d'Oléron and Royan are all within easy reach.
Port Médoc
In Verdon-sur-Mer, at the mouth of the Gironde, the Port Médoc marina has a capacity of almost 1,000 berths. It welcomes all owners wishing to spend a boating season on the French coast, as well as those wishing to stay longer. Boaters benefit fromstate-of-the-art facilities and, once again, the presence of numerous nautical professionals on site: in particular, shipyards and stores specializing in marine hardware.
For those wishing to discover the pleasures of yachting in France: the geographical location of Port Médoc makes it easy to enjoy both sailing in the Gironde estuary and maritime discoveries on the Atlantic seaboard!

Just a stone's throw from theAtlantic and the Bay of Biscay, on the River Adour, the port of Bayonne Anglet enables boat owners to store their vessels just one nautical mile from the coast, always with top-quality facilities. If you're planning a sailing season in France, the Basque country, Biarritz, Anglet and its coastline are definitely a destination to consider.
