The port of La Madelon is a marina located on the Authie, near its mouth at the bottom of the Bay of Authie[1]; the location of the port, in the place called "La Madelon", is shared between the communes of Waben and Groffliers, in the department of Pas-de-Calais.

From the beautiful restaurant on the Bay of Authie, a narrow footpath leads past the small harbor of Madelon - and if the water is not too high, it even takes you the three kilometers to the bridge for pedestrians, cyclists and horse riders towards the Baie de la Somme.

Once flourishing under the protection of Waben Castle, the port of Madelon, with its medieval Berck fishing fleet, evolved into a marina due to the siltation of Authie Bay. Today, it has become a simple pontoon near a parking lot, but the setting remains very pleasant and the site is worth the detour!

The Authie footbridge, inaugurated in April 2022, is a 52 meter long pedestrian and cycling structure which facilitates safe crossing of the Authie river. Connecting the departments of Somme and Pas-de-Calais, it is part of the Eurocyclo project, aiming to enrich coastal cycle routes.
