Description
Atlantic France is an acclaimed pilot book published by the Royal Cruising Club Pilotage Foundation and covers sailing along the Atlantic coast of France, from Ouessant (Ushant) in the north to the Spanish border in the south. The area encompasses some of Europe’s most tidal and exposed waters.
The book provides detailed descriptions of ports, marinas and anchorages, as well as in-depth information on approaches, tides, currents and local features. Particular emphasis is placed on safe navigation in areas with large tidal differences, strong currents and exposed stretches of sea.
Based on the extensive experience of the Royal Cruising Club Pilotage Foundation, the guide serves both as a pre-voyage planning tool and as a reliable reference during the voyage. Atlantic France is an essential supplement to official charts and electronic navigation systems for sailors traveling along this part of Europe’s Atlantic coast.
