Full Description & Details
Port Binic Marina, also known as Porte de Plaisance Binic, sits in the commune of Binic-Etables-sur-Mer in the Cotes-d'Armor department of Brittany, France. The marina is set close to the town's historic facades, placing it within easy reach of the lively resort life along the quay. It offers 455 berths, including 135 external moorings on buoys, and is well protected from prevailing winds by breakwaters.
The marina is equipped with water, electricity, and garbage containers at each berth, and a dedicated pontoon along the Jean Bart embankment accommodates 60 guest yachts.
