Port Chantereyne

4.2 (87 reviews)

Port Chantereyne has been a fixture of Cherbourg's waterfront since 1975, and with 1,600 berths across four docks, it's one of France's busiest ports of call. The marina feels genuinely woven into the city — you're steps from the town center, the massive Cité de la Mer maritime museum, and all the practical amenities you'd need for a longer stay. It's well-regarded for its quality of service and cleanliness, so you're not roughing it here.
