Visited Chateau Marina 24 – 26 May. Allocated a berth on the long visitors pontoon immediately to starboard hand on entry. For two nights suffered noise all night from the anglers / fishermen on the adjacent mole. On the last night my wife was woken by noise on the boat and woke to find one of them on the boat trying to open the cockpit canopy. He showed her he had a fishing weight in his hand- whether as a threat or to show the opposite, ie that he meant her no harm, I’m not sure.
We did not feel secure so called the police who sent a car but we did not get to speak to them although had no further trouble, perhaps as the troublemakers had seen the blue light.
We will not come back to this marina and would not recommend it to others.
On 14th June we cleared in to Customs at Brest. Australian Passports stamped and confirmation of our full COVID vaccination all that was required.
The Customs office hours are 8.30am to 12.30pm Monday to Friday.
Customs is a 5 min walk from Chateau Marina. Carrefour supermarket 15 min walk in town. Plenty of cafes and restaurants, bars, etc.
Customs Address: 14 quai de la douane, Brest

Thanks Blue Heeler! Rules changed June 9th and I’ve been meaning to update the info. Appreciate the prompt and great news that you could get into France. Enjoy those wonderful croissants and bread!
We stayed in Marina du Chateau in June 2018, marina staff very friendly, weekly prices available. The large bassin offers plenty of space for manoeuvring or rafting up. Negative point, the uphill hike for shopping, one small shop only in harbour area, but plenty of restaurants and bars..
