Port Vauban - Antibes Description :

Port Vauban: a prestigious marina

With a rich maritime history, Port Vauban is the favourite anchorage for mega yachts and the most beautiful sailing yachts in the world. This international reputation has even gained the prestigious nickname of “Escale merveilleuse” (Magnificent Port of Call, in English). Indeed, this marina located in the middle of the French Riviera, at the heart of Antibes, enjoys magnificent surroundings: picturesque alleys from the old city, above the sea battlements, a spectacular view of the Southern Alpes, turquoise-blue water and sunny weather. In short, all the charm of the French Riviera, which stretches from Saint-Tropez to the Italian frontier.

Port Vauban owes its success to its numerous technical assets: a total square surface of 460,000 m², 1,650 berths, a 12,000 m² dry dock, and a harbour master's office with a heliport, to name the few.

The harbour has about one hundred berths for twenty-three-meter-long yachts, as well as a Quai des Milliardaires, designed for mega yachts, allowing vessels up to one hundred metre long.

With a 165-metre-large-and-up-to-eight-metre-deep entry point, the harbour is accessible whatever the weather.
