...from which to explore the delights of Boulonnais.
What a pleasure to be able to moor up your motorboat or 25-metre sailing boat at the edge of the largest fishing port in France and on the doorstep of a city rich in 2,000 years of history! The other huge benefit in addition to the marina’s large reception capacity in Boulogne-sur-Mer is being right in the centre of an amazing city.
