Port de Barneville-Carteret
Voted Highly Commended Marina at the 2022 British Yachting Awards, Port de Barneville-Carteret sits in a sheltered harbor hollow on the Cotentin Peninsula, putting you right across from the Channel Islands. You get 311 pontoon berths with 60 set aside for arrivals, plus 95 drying moorings — just note the 25 m maximum length limit and tidal access restrictions before you plan your approach. The setting is genuinely pretty, with the old fishing village of Barneville a short walk along a quiet road from the yacht club.
