We take regular and active participation in the main boat shows in PARIS and The Grand Pavois of LA ROCHELLE.

Cherbourg is an exceptional location, being a convenient crossing point for many yachtsmen, for both French yachts and visitors to France. Cherbourg is the ideal starting point for short hops along the coast, across the channel or to the channel islands as well as for long-distance candidates and racing boats for RORC races. 

We welcome you to Cherbourg and to enjoy the benefits of our service.
