Ad hoc means "in a suitable manner"

That’s why we see our harbours as convivial shelters where all lovers of the sea can recharge their batteries, refuel, repair and winter.

Our aim is to give these lovers, through our marinas, privileged access to the only preserved natural space capable of offering us full freedom.

From the west of the English Channel to the south of the Bay of Biscay, via the Gironde estuary, our harbours are to be found all along the Atlantic seaboard, offering you a multitude of gateways to the ocean and its treasures. Are you heading for Italy along the Côte d’Azur or Spain along the Côte Vermeille? Our harbours offer you a central position in the western Mediterranean to discover all its natural and cultural delights.

In Sweden, Svinninge Marina is the gateway to the Baltic Sea’s most beautiful sailing areas.

The manifesto

Meet a European leader

Port Adhoc was born 20 years ago.

Our ambition was to develop accessibility to the sea without over-engineering our coasts, and to offer, through the dry stack marinas we created, areas dedicated to small crafts. Two decades later, we have consolidated the very first marina platform in Europe, the historic birthplace of recreational boating. Its vocation is to contribute to exchanges and mobility around our common heritage, the sea. Our ambition for the next decade is to intensify our investments to encourage the emergence of a new generation of boaters.

"The sea is everything. It covers seven tenths of the terrestrial globe. Its breath is pure and healthy. It is an immense desert, where man is never lonely, for he feels life stirring on all sides. The sea is only the embodiment of a supernatural and wonderful existence. It is nothing but love and emotion; it is the Living Infinite."

Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea, 1870

Every year, numerous Dutch sailors head for the Baltic Sea and Sweden, either for the summer season or for longer periods. Why this new sailing area? Which route do they take? In Sweden, which marina do they choose for their boat? Paul, Hans, Éric, and Ralf… in this article, several Port Adhoc boaters who made the journey from the Netherlands to Sweden with their boats share their experiences. Are you ready to discover their stories and tips?
Sailing is generally considered an environmentally friendly sport. No engine noise, no high fuel consumption – just wind, water, and wide open spaces. Yet, if you look more closely, it quickly becomes clear: even on the water there is still plenty of room for improvement when it comes to sustainability.
A free horizon, sails full in the wind – and a cruising ground that leaves all possibilities open to you: welcome to the IJsselmeer! Those who cast off in Lelystad are not simply setting sail. They are embarking on one of the most diverse sailing areas in Europe.
Our Galley Recipes series continues its culinary voyage through Northern Europe and drops anchor in the Netherlands, in two exceptional marinas: Jachthaven Naarden and Marina Muiderzand. Two premium destinations in the heart of the Dutch lakes, perfect for sailing, relaxing... and tasting local delights such as Gouda cheese and the iconic Dudok’s Apple Pie!
A sailing trip with children can be an unforgettable experience – in the best sense! Nature, freedom, shared time far away from everyday life – all of this makes sailing an ideal way to enjoy family time intensively. At the same time, life on board with little sailors also comes with its challenges: boredom, limited space, or uncertainty can quickly dampen the fun – unless you are well prepared.
In the English Channel, the Channel Islands offer numerous cruising opportunities and several stops highly appreciated by sailors. In this article, the Port Adhoc team presents the destination and how you too can explore it while sailing.
