Port Hercule and the Grand Prix start grid

Port Hercule

Sight

Monaco's only deep-water harbour, used since antiquity and rebuilt in 1926, where superyachts moor below the Rock. The Formula 1 starting grid is marked on Boulevard Albert 1er outside No. 17, and the quays follow the circuit round to the 135-degree La Rascasse bend.

Good to know

  • Walk out along the Rainier III breakwater for a view back over the harbour to the Rock, ending at the stepped Solarium Beach (Visit Monaco).
  • Look at the racing memorabilia in the window of the Automobile Club de Monaco at 23 Boulevard Albert 1er (Lonely Planet).
  • The Stade Nautique Rainier III on the port is a heated seawater Olympic-size pool that becomes an ice rink from December to March.
