A new online booking service will allow yachts cruising in the Côte dAzur to check for availability of overnight berths and book their place in 21 ports along the French Riviera, including Port de Nice.
The website www.resaports.com has French, English and Italian versions. From June 1 this year captains can call a hotline to book a berth.
If successful the initiative could be extended to ports in Var, Bouches du Rhône and Liguria. Skippers fill in details of their boats and expected date of arrival.
The initiative has been set up by the Pôle Nautique de la Chambre de Commerce et d’Industrie Nice Côte d’Azur and l’UPACA (Union des Ports de Plaisance de Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur).
