Clear in at Le Marin
French Customs lists two approved clearance points at Le Marin: the harbour office in the new extension, and the CAP fuel station on pontoon 3. Clearance is electronic on demarches-simplifiees.fr since 1 September 2024. (French Customs, list updated January 2026.)
Baie du Marin mooring field
The mooring field uses white buoys. Anchoring inside it is forbidden except in an emergency. It accepts vessels up to 30 m and 50 tonnes, and the fee is paid in advance. Sources differ on the number of buoys. The 2021 permit covers 98 buoys, with 68 more inside the marina's port area under a separate permit. The harbour captain gave 250 buoys in 2024. (Prefecture, 2021; bateaux.com, 2024.)
