About marina region
The
Hauts-de-France region, located in the north of
France, is renowned for its marinas. These marinas play an essential role in the region's economy, facilitating trade and fostering tourism development. Among the most important marinas in the region are the
Calais marina, the Dunkirk marina, and the
Boulogne-Sur-Mer marina.
The
Calais marina is one of the busiest in
France, due to its proximity to England. It handles significant passenger and freight traffic, thanks in part to its connections with the port of Dover. The Dunkirk marina, on the other hand, is the third largest French maritime port and one of the largest commercial ports in Europe. It specializes in container traffic, cereals, and petroleum products. Finally, the
Boulogne-Sur-Mer marina is mainly dedicated to fishing, with a fleet of offshore boats and a significant fish market.
These marinas contribute to the economic vitality of the
Hauts-de-France region, creating jobs and attracting investments. Moreover, they also offer leisure and discovery opportunities, with seaside walks, lighthouse visits, and boat trips. The
Hauts-de-France region is therefore an ideal destination for maritime tourism enthusiasts and for companies looking to develop their activities in a dynamic port environment.
