Famous as the harbour from which William the Conqueror set sail in 1066, Saint-Valery-sur-Somme today is a tidal marina rather than a cargo port. Around 250 leisure berths sit behind a sea lock on the Somme maritime canal that opens only about 90 minutes before high tide, so there are no container or general-cargo operations. Forwarders serving the Hauts-de-France region route freight through Dieppe or Rouen, and containers through Le Havre.
