Bassin Napoléon

Bassin Napoléon is a historic marina sitting right in the heart of Boulogne-sur-Mer, open 24 hours a day with 108 berths, 70 of which are set aside for visiting boats spread across four pontoons (A–D). The old town, with its ramparts and the Nausicaá aquarium, is essentially on your doorstep. Three alongside faces are available for arrival, making it easy to get tied up without fuss.
