Logo of the Minister of the Sea

The Minister of the Sea (French: Ministre de la Mer) was a cabinet member in the Government of France from 1981 to 2017 and from 2020 to 2022. The position has frequently been combined with the positions of Minister of Transport (Ministre des Transports), Minister of Public Works (Ministre des Travaux publics), Minister of Housing (Ministre du Logement), Minister of Tourism (Ministre du Tourisme) and Minister of Territorial Development (Ministre de l'Aménagement du territoire).

Alain Vidalies was Secretary of State for Transport, the Sea and Fisheries (Secrétaire d'État chargé des Transports, de la Mer et de la Pêche) from 2014 to 2017.[1] The post was a junior minister of cabinet rank within the Ministry of Ecology, Sustainable Development and Energy. When Nicolas Hulot took the direction of the ministry in 2017, the office was abolished and replaced by the State Secretariat for the Sea.

The Minister of the Sea was fully reinstalled on its own between July 2020 and May 2022 as Annick Girardin hold the title of Minister of the Sea.[2] After May 2022, it became again a Secretary of State under the direction of the Prime Minister's services.
