Port de Comberge

Presentation It is under the increasingly strong pressure of the Syndical Association of the owners of Tharon-Plage, and also of the public opinion that the commune decided on August 18, 1960, the setting up in site of the port works. . The Comberge site was chosen, after much hesitation, because of its ease of access, both for sailors to unload their cargo (fish or others) and for boaters during the summer. A beacon with rotating lights signals the entrance to the port at night. The surface of the port is 15,000 m³. The first port facilities were inaugurated in 1962 by Mr. Marc JACQUET, then Minister of Public Works and Transport. Subsequently other adjustments were made. A club was created "La Cormorane" in 1961, which organizes many regattas. The commune of St Michel Chef Chef has built a building near the port of Comberge where the club can continue its nautical activities in good conditions. Text by Mme Raymonde Dufils
