The Port

The Saint Cyprien port was built in 1969 and is an integral part of the landscape and history of the city. Now it's the nerve center of Saint Cyprien. This marina is the 3rd largest in Europe, but it is also an operating fishing port. There are a total of 2500 boats moored in Saint Cyprien, a few are fishing boats, but much less than before, according to local fishermen. But you can also watch the spectacle of the return of the fishermen, where everyone knows each other and they talk about fish. In the booths you can see, whiting, mullet, golden, mackerel, ... Fishermen normally go around 100,000 miles away to catch their fish, which are immediately sold to wholesalers in the city and surrounding area, or, put another way, the fishmongers! Fresh fish is sold here every day.
