Port Terra, marina in Martigues, France

Port Terra

Port Terra sits on the western shore of the Étang de Berre, a vast inland saltwater lagoon in the heart of Provence-Alpes, giving it a sheltered, east-facing position backed by the Heures Claires plateau. With over 200 moorings, it's a solid base if you want to explore the étang or the wider Martigues-Istres area. The Provençal light out here is something else, and you're well-placed for the flamingo-dotted lagoon scenery that makes this part of southern France genuinely distinctive.
