Leucate Anchorage
Drop anchor here in 2–5m over a mud bottom off the Leucate lagoon system, where the Étang de Leucate stretches behind you and the Cap Leucate headland rises to the north. The holding is generally reliable, but keep a close eye on the Tramontane — this northwesterly wind can build fast and turn the anchorage uncomfortable in a hurry. The setting is wild and open, with long sandy beaches nearby and the hilltop village of Leucate a short trip inland if you want to stretch your legs and find a cold glass of something local.
