The Mini Port
Here we go round, the merry go round….
The miniature port designed for our little sailors is a nautical merry-go-round with small fun design boats, electric and licence-free. This way, take your children on a 10 minute or more ride. Our mini port is situated in the 19th arrondissement of Paris, on the Bassin de la Villette near the centre of Paris. It’s really easy to get there with public transport.
The mini port navigation zone, covering more than 1200 m2, is exclusively dedicated to our little sailors Moussaillon d’eau Douce. Your children can therefore sail and enjoy this amazing activity, freely and completely safe. The use of the mini boats, with family or friends, is allowed only in the area marked by the buoys.
For family trips on the remainder of the Bassin de la Villette or on the Canal de l’Ourcq on board electric, licence-free boats for 5,7 or 11 people, please contact us online
The floating deck
Our nautical base including the miniature port Moussaillon d’Eau Douce and the Marin d’Eau Douce base is also equipped with a floating deck on the water.
After an activity with the kids, enjoy the sun, watch the boats come and go and drink a mint syrup with fresh water. Indeed, our terrace bar “La Guinguette du Capitaine” offers drinks and snacks for your relaxing break. The charm of our terrace is it’s unique setting.
Comfortably seated on the water of the Bassin de la Villette, admire the traditional Parisian barges. Then, look on your right and discover the majestic Rotunda. Turn to your left, you will spot in the distance the lift bridge “Pont de Crimée”.
