These waters from a catamaran
The cruising grounds — the Breton and Antioche straits around a low tidal island, between sandbanks and the Fier d’Ars lagoon — suit a catamaran's shallow draught: anchoring right off the beaches, bound for the Baleines lighthouse, the crossing to La Rochelle and the Pertuis Breton anchorages.
