| More notes about the Marina | |
Port de Corbieres consists of a large basin protected by an 800 metre long breakwater at the extreme NW end of the commercial docks and basins of Marseille on the Mediterranean coast of France. It lies around one mile W of the two basins of Port de L'Estaque, with which it should not be confused. The basin contains a series of six pontoons which are allocated to a number of yacht clubs and private societies.
