The boats do not only leave from the ports,
they go away driven by a dream.
Erik Orsenna
France, the world's 2nd largest maritime territory, has more than 13 million pleasure boaters. Each year, more than 10,000 new vessels complete this "armada". At the same time, more than 42 million tons of goods enter the territory via the port infrastructures. Figures, excluding Covid, in constant growth...

More than a label, it is a sharing of values and passions that must be transmitted where we draw our common inspiration, where humility in the face of nature dominates: at sea.
The ports of France and the world have a responsibility and we must all prove ourselves worthy of it.
This commitment goes beyond financial participation and opens a path to reason and a mutually beneficial long-term relationship.
