At Port Sud de France (Sète), a solution was needed to effectively protect the marina from the strong waves generated by fishing vessel traffic, ensuring safe coexistence between the fishing and recreational fleets.
MSI carried out one of the largest floating breakwater installations in Europe, spanning nearly two kilometers in length. The project combines a first section consisting of SF1230 modules arranged in parallel, reaching 6 meters in width and intended for boat mooring, and a second section comprising a 4-meter T400 floating breakwater, guided by internal piles and also equipped for mooring via jetties in the protected area.
The solution offers excellent wave attenuation and effective, long-lasting protection for the marina.
