France

- Île d’Ouessant is difficult to reach, presents a challenge for sailors and is characterised by dangerous tidal currents such as the Passage du Fromveur.  
- The island is a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, surrounded by numerous lighthouses, and marks a key passage at the entrance to the English Channel.  
- Historically shaped by seafaring, lighthouse keepers and strong women, Ouessant now thrives mainly on tourism and serves as a landmark for sailing records.

- North coast of Brittany: up to 12 m tidal range, strong currents, rocky coast, offshore islands, challenging area.

- Frequent easterly winds in spring/early summer; numerous specialised sailing guides, nautical charts and learning materials are recommended.

- Trébeurden, Roscoff, Morlaix and Aber Wrac'h offer tide-dependent to tide-independent harbours with sometimes strong currents and challenging approaches.
- Morlaix scores points with its TGV connection, viaduct and chocolate from Grain de Sail, whose beans arrive by sailing freighter from Central America.
- To the west of Aber Wrac'h, rugged coastlines, the Amoco Cadiz oil spill and striking lighthouses such as Créac'h and Phare de la Jument dominate.

- Cruise from Paimpol via the rivers Trieux and Tréguier to Lézardrieux, Pontrieux, Tréguier and on to Port Blanc and Perros-Guirec.  
- Strong currents, tides, bridge heights and narrow harbour entrances require precise timing, mooring in slack water and the partial use of buoys/anchorages.  
- The region offers a contrast of rugged coastline, sheltered river landscapes, a shipyard for Boréal aluminium boats and Breton cuisine with galettes, crêpes and cider.

- The north coast of Brittany combines a strong maritime identity, Celtic heritage and outstanding fish and seafood cuisine.  
- The route leads from Saint-Malo via Saint-Cast and Saint-Quay-Portrieux to the tide-dependent, sheltered harbour of Paimpol.  
- Paimpol's historic harbour bears witness to the former Islande fishing industry, whose sacrifices and tradition are recorded in literature in "Pêcheur d'Islande".

- Despite only 3 km of coastline, Monaco has a shoreline that is predominantly characterised by harbours.
- Two former natural harbours protected by piers and the Plage du Larvotto beach occupy almost the entire coastline.
- Port Hercule offers a spectacular, amphitheatre-like panorama, is sought-after, difficult to obtain and correspondingly expensive.

- Antibes is not inferior to the fashionable resorts of the Côte d'Azur in terms of charm, old town streets and celebrity guests.
- Port Vauban is one of the leading marinas in the Mediterranean with a high total tonnage.

- Three men travel over 1,000 km on the Rhine & Co. in a Nitro Z21 XL bass boat, living and sleeping improvised on board and fishing along the way.  
- Heat, locks, bad weather, police checks, lack of electricity and space, waves and flotsam make the trip a constant test of endurance.  
- Guests, community support, successful catches and 48 hours of self-sufficiency with fish and wild plants show the trip to be a modern leisure adventure.
