The busiest port of entry in Guadeloupe: clear in or out on the customs computer at the Bas-du-Fort marina office, a few steps from the visitor pontoon.

Practical

Coordinate approx: the capitainerie inside the marina (OSM relation 5838544). French customs' 2026 list of approved clearance points gives Marina Bas du Fort - Capitainerie, +590 590 93 66 20 / +590 690 35 19 19, info@marinaguadeloupe.com, hours varying with the season. Noonsite also lists Mme Forbin at Carenage No.32 (+590 690 43 15 40, Mon-Fri 7:30am-2pm) and the customs office (+590 590 83 03 79, cli-guadeloupe@douane.finances.gouv.fr). Fill in the online French Antilles declaration first and get the attestation endorsed; a Noonsite note says you may clear in and out at the same time if not changing crew and staying under two weeks. noforeignland users say the office is busiest early and at lunch.
