The port of Nice is divided into two parts: commercial port at the entrance and marina at the back. It is the leading cement port in France , linked to the artificial cement production plants in the Paillon valleys . Corsica is supplied with cement by bulk cargo ships to Bastia where a bagging plant is installed to supply the island. The bottom basin serves as a mooring place for boats and yachts . A small fishing activity remains, but the number of professional fishermen is now less than ten.
