For boats

La Marina at Le Caudan Waterfront, better known as ‘Bassin des Chaloupes’, is situated in a privileged harbouring location and offers ideal mooring conditions for Mauritian as well as foreign yachts and pleasure crafts.

As you sail on latitude 20° 09.4 South and longitude 57° 29.45 East, the Port-Louis Radio VHF welcomes you on the 12-14-16 channel right at the entrance of Port-Louis.
 
Entrance into Port Louis is straight forward and well marked. The southern one is the main port and it is where yachts enter.
 
After usual formalities at the ‘Customs steps’, the Security & Maintenance service of Le Caudan Waterfront will meet you at the Marina.
 
FORMALITIES
 
Port Louis is the main harbour and the only official port of entry and exit for Mauritius. One must clear in here before visiting any other anchorage.

That wharf is located in an old grey building, next to an old windmill and restaurant on the port side right at the end of the main channel. The dock is small, just for 2-3 boats. Tie the lines to the railings. Watch for the swell which often coming inside the harbour.
