What these waters give a sailboat

A unique case: the Berre lagoon, an inland sea, linked to the Mediterranean by the Caronte channel beneath the bridges of the “Provençal Venice” — plenty to tack across with a real destination in mind. Departure: the harbours of Martigues’ three quarters, either side of the canal.

Setting the day by the wind

Here, a mistral that rules the lagoon — famed windsurfing water — with often-calm summer mornings. Pick the outbound tack so you come home downwind, and the day turns easy.
