Entry is not advisable in very strong NE winds.
Approach - the twin pillars of the lighthouse are not obvious coming from the North until quite close.
The arrivals/visitors berths are on the first pontoon to port on entering the first basin of the inner harbor. A prior call on VHF usually results in a quick reply and help with berthing if necessary.
The shore storage area and comprehensive repair facilities are on the north side of the harbor. There is a ferry service across the basin.

As a newcomer to Noonsite I would like to add up to ports & good sailing ground the area around Port Vendres, where the Pyrenees mountains drop into the Mediterranean; Sun, Wind,& wild scenery as well as Good way of life (food, hiking, anchorages …).
In addition to one port? Canet en Roussillon (1300 berths, quays for repairs) with outstanding facilities for drydocking & repairs, with lifts from 30 to 200 Tons capacity (monohulls as well as catamarans) & loads of workshops & suppliers for all work related to sailing.
The proximity of the city of Perpignan with even more industrial capacity helps keep prices low (not cut-throat as often encountered with Shipchandlers). I warmly recommend the services & will happily help out if wishing for more information.
SV Désirade VIII – soon (9/11/2017) to cast off to South Atlantic.
