Marina operator D-Marin won the tender of Camille Rayon Marina in Côte d’Azur, France, after receiving approval from the Vallauris Golfe-Juan municipal council for the marina’s redevelopment and operation. Over 25 years, the marina will be enhanced with a 52-million Euro investment in its facilities and renovation.
“The Camille Rayon port is entering a new area thanks to the renewal of the port concession awarded to D-Marin,” shares Kevin Luciano, mayor of Vallauris Golfe-Juan. “The exceptional project of Rudy Ricciotti, a world-renowned architect, will transform into a work of art with a sumptuous development project that gives pride of place to the environment.”
The marina will be equipped with modern technologies, and D-Marin will ensure all investments and improvements are sustainable. Shipyard operations will be managed by MB92,a yacht refit, repair and maintenance company.
“We are delighted to enter the French market with the beautiful Camille Rayon marina,” says D-Marin CEO Oliver Dörschuck. “D-Marin has experienced strong growth in recent years, and we look forward to expanding our network of high-end, fully connected and environmentally friendly marinas to more destinations.”
Located in the heart of the Mediterranean coast between Cannes and Antibes, Camille Rayon can support boats up to 75 meters across its 841 berths. Marina degli Aregai and Marina di San Lorenzo joined the D-Marin network earlier this year.
