The Team's Message -February 2026
Dear Friends,
The first month of the year has been rather gloomy weather-wise. The only recommended activity in such cases is to curl up on the sofa and watch television, even if what you see and hear isn't very cheerful.
Despite everything, we hope you all had a happy start to the year and avoided any viruses and other bacteria that have been very active this year.
There is not much to say, except that the municipal council has accepted the negotiated settlement of the deep-sea trial with Mr Fontes, despite five votes against from the opposition and eight abstentions from the municipal majority. The municipal opposition has lodged an appeal with the prefect.
We do not know what the outcome will be, but we will follow developments closely. If Port Croisade were ordered to pay the penalty and carry out a complete dredging of the basin, we believe it could file for bankruptcy. What about our expenses? Who would take over the management of the basin? The community of municipalities that manages the port of Aigues Mortes would take over the management, or not, knowing that it could be obliged to carry out this famous unnecessary dredging, which would cost a real fortune (see the drone survey report of 20 January 2022).
Port Croisade has committed to conducting an assessment every five years. So we will request a new assessment next year.
We have no news about the dispute between Port Croisade and VNF. Another €152,000 that a potential new manager would have to pay annually if Port Croisade were to withdraw from the game due to a lack of agreement with the municipality.
The municipal election campaign has begun, and we are also keeping a close eye on the proposals of the various lists. In the early years of our beautiful marina, the Town Council paid little attention to what was happening there, but it seems that this has changed.
This is a matter to be followed up, and we will be keeping a close eye on election promises, even though they are traditionally rarely kept.
We wish you a good end to the month and hope that the coming months will be better in terms of weather and that those who have a boat will be able to enjoy some nice trips out to sea.
With kind regards
The President of the Association and Board of Directors
