General
Approaches, Routes and Navigation
There are two mains passes to access Trebeurden Anchorage and Marina:
The easiest one is the "Toul Ar Melen" pass between Milliau island and Molène Island. To reach this pass there are two stragegies: By night, fog or rough sea, you should circumvent the sneaky Crapeau rock (there is a West cardinal). By day, with a GPS, you can cross between the Crapeau and the "Ar vesleg" rocks : the East dangers are the "Ar Vesleg" rocks and the sneaky rock "le Four". To avoid "Le four" keep the "Taureau" rock on the right of "Ar Vesleg". Keep at last 200 meters between you and "Ar Vesleg", use your GPS to keep distance with "Le Crapau".
Then:
By night there is a directional light (Lan Kerellec) : no problem. By day, the high Milliau island and an ugly building (no confusion possible) are very usefull: Keep the builing and the north of Millieu on th same line to avoid any danger. When you are clear from "Le Crapeau", by keeping the ugly building between the cardinal "Ar Gouredec" and the Milliau Island you will avoid any immediate danger.
There hardest passe "Toul Ar Men Melen" is only possible by day after half-tide.
You should first try the easy pass.

Marinas and Anchorages
There is a well protected and beautyfull anchorage between the Milliau Island and the Green access buoy. There are visitor buoys to wait at any time for the Marina door openning. I have never seen less than 3 meters of water around these buoys.
There is also a possible anchorage close to Molène island beach.
