Reservation of the secured car park at the Bassins des Lumières is not compulsory, but is strongly recommended. This reservation guarantees you parking on the day of your visit. There is also a free municipal car park in front of the submarine base. These spaces are quickly occupied as they are also used by other sites in the area and we cannot guarantee you a space in this car park.
