Port de Leucate is located along the coast of the Gulf of Lion (in Mediterranean France). It is located in the seaside area of Leucate (called precisely “Port Leucate”) and is one of the largest ports in Europe.

It consists of two large main docks and three other smaller docks. In addition, the port area hosts a naturist zone, where additional mooring places have been placed. The favorable location, situated between the sea and the ponds of the Leucate peninsula, protects the port area well.
The total number of places available for boats is 1270 (nearly 200 are reserved for transient boaters), and mooring is on floating mobile docks or fixed concrete docks.

The port can accommodate boats that have a maximum length of 23 meters, while the draft of the seabed varies, from 4 meters in the outermost area to 3 meters present in the channel and docks, ending with a depth ranging from one to 2 meters in the naturist area.
Anchoring is prohibited in the entire port area and in the area in front of it.

The area is affected by northwesterly winds and southeasterly winds, which can generate intense swell and make access into the harbor difficult. The conformation of the harbor, however, provides good protection for moored vessels.

The marina provides its boaters with drinking water sources and electricity supply columns, at the dock and on the piers.
It has sanitary facilities and shower rooms scattered throughout many parts of the landing (areas accessible only by a magnetic badge). It also has an area designated for waste and waste oil collection and bilge pumps for black water collection.

The shipbuilding area has three travelifts with maximum capacities of 6, 12 and 50 tons, several cranes and storage spaces for small and large boats. It also has two hauling areas and a slipway (for a fee).

Customers are also given spaces on land for small maintenance work and a self-service laundry.

The Leucate port area also houses a gasoline and diesel fuel station, self-service and open 24 hours a day.
The port also offers the possibility of using the services of specialized professional for maintenance and repair operations-mechanical, electronic, on sails and on engines-as well as buying and selling services of boats and nautical accessories.

The local harbormaster’s office-during the summer season-is open from 8:30 am to 7:30 pm.
The Port de Leucate is surrounded by a large sandy beach. Stores, hotels and restaurants can be found in its surroundings.
Adventurers who come here can also take advantage of sailing and diving courses and jetsky, bicycle and boat rental services.

The Leucate area offers many beautiful beaches.

Port Leucate beach is the closest to the landing. It is about two kilometers long and is encountered as soon as you leave the port area and head to the right. It is a fine sandy beach, close to the town center and accessible to people with physical disabilities. It offers its patrons showers, the possibility of renting swimming equipment, and a restaurant in the immediate vicinity. There are parking lots (for a fee) in the vicinity. It is a supervised beach during the summer period.

The beach du Galion is the closest to the center of Leucate and also one of the busiest. It is a light, fine sand beach, guarded, with two rescue stations. Its left side is the most frequented because it is closer to restaurants and businesses, while the one abutting the right cliff protects against the winds that affect the coast (which can become very strong on some days). It is accessible to people with mobility disabilities.

To the left of the entrance to Port de Leucate, however, is the naturist beach.
