In addition to the “Blue flag” and “Clean Harbour” labels, Saint-Pierre des Embiez was the first Harbour in the Var to be awarded ISO 14001 certification, thanks to its environmental policy  applied since 2006. Nowadays, Saint-Pierre harbour guarantees an exemplary welcome to the 750 boats which can dock in it all year long.

The harbour is a favourite pleasure destination and the quality of its waters are analysed every week… complementary to an extremely strict control of its waste disposal. Its comfortable showers and toilet facilities, organised under hammam design for some of them, were built in three different points of the harbour in order to limit as far as possible water rejects from boats, which allow flora and fauna to be preserved in harmonious conditions…

These amenities have proved a tremendous success with those yachtsmen and women who appreciate a certain level of comfort.

If you choose to dock at Les Embiez, you undertake to respect our 7-point charter of good environmental practices:

1. I use rubbish bins and sort my waste.
2. I take my dangerous waste (motor oils, paints, hydrcarbons, solvents, contaminated waste, out-of-date flares,…) to the “clean point”.
3. I use the toilet facilities of the harbour rather than the toilets on my boat.
4. I limit my consumption of water, especially for rinsing my boat.
5. I respect other users, especially as regards noise.
6. I use products which are less harmful for the marine environment.
7. I keep my dog on a lead and pick up its mess.
