Port Racine, Historic port in La Hague, France.
Port Racine extends across 800 square meters between two stone piers, with an 11-meter opening that allows small boats to enter the harbor.
Captain François-Médard Racine, a French privateer operating under Napoleon, established this strategic location in 1813 to shelter from storms and enemies.
Local fishermen maintain traditional fishing practices at the port, contributing to the maritime heritage of the Normandy coastal region.
The port functions as a mooring point for small fishing vessels, secured by ropes attached to wooden bollards positioned along the piers.
This location holds the distinction of being France's smallest port, measuring just 800 square meters in total surface area.
