PORT DE SAINT-FLORENT RECEIVES S3 FLAGSHIP CERTIFICATION FOR ITS OPERATIONAL AND ENVIRONMENTAL EXCELLENCE
Monaco – September 2026 – M3 Monaco is pleased to announce that Port de Saint-Florent, in Corsica, has achieved Flagship level under the S3 Smart & Sustainable Standard, recognising its high level of operational, environmental and managerial performance.
Located in an exceptional natural setting, surrounded by protected environments both on land and at sea, Saint-Florent demonstrates how a marina can combine demanding operational requirements with a strong sense of responsibility towards its territory and ecosystems.
The S3 audit particularly highlighted the Port’s operational excellence, its management culture and its approach to continuous improvement. Its experience and practices have served as examples for institutions and many other French marinas.
Saint-Florent also illustrates one of the fundamental principles of the S3 Standard: excellence does not depend solely on the scale of investment or the resources available.
Through strong leadership, a clear ambition and a long-term vision, the port has achieved a remarkable level of performance while remaining deeply connected to its territory and community.
Major improvement projects currently underway demonstrate that this ambition continues. Rather than viewing its current performance as an endpoint, Saint-Florent is investing in the next stage of its development with the aim of further strengthening its position among the leading marinas in Corsica and France.
Flagship certification, corresponding to the Excellence level of the S3 framework, recognises facilities demonstrating strong and consistent performance across the Standard’s eight pillars.
For M3 Monaco, Saint-Florent demonstrates that committed leadership, operational discipline and environmental responsibility can make a marina a benchmark, regardless of its size.
