Anchoring and clearance
Seaward of the reserve limit
Vessels of 24 m and over may anchor in the waters of the Bouches de Bonifacio reserve off Corse-du-Sud only seaward of the limit set in annex I of the order. Dynamic positioning is allowed only beyond that limit, and the flag state or class society must approve the system. Inside the limit, stopping is allowed on buoys and moorings under the occupation title issued by the departmental prefect. (Préfet maritime order 156/2024, 23 May 2024.)
Declare or ask first
Yachts of 45 m to under 80 m declare to the Navy semaphore at least 1 hour before they reach the zone. Yachts of 80 m and over need authorisation, asked at least 1 hour before arrival through the semaphore, which passes it to CROSS MED. The Pertusato semaphore, +33 4 95 73 18 86, covers Punta di Rondinara to Pointe de Sénétosa. (Préfet maritime order 157/2024, consolidated with order 177/2026.)
Time limits
Authorisation for yachts of 80 m and over is for up to 24 hours at first, renewable to 72 hours in total. The master can then ask for more time in slots of up to 24 hours, for safety, health, or commercial and technical reasons, including yachting work. From 1 May to 30 September, CROSS MED can grant 80 m and over yachts up to 72 hours at first, renewable in 72-hour slots. The order does not apply inside ports. (Order 77/2025, 15 April 2025.)
