French port best in a storm? (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

antibes

'french port' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'best in a storm?' is the wordplay.
'storm?' indicates an anagram (I've seen 'storms' mean this).
'best'+'in'+'a'='bestina'
'bestina' with letters rearranged gives 'ANTIBES'.

(Other definitions for antibes that I've seen before include "French Mediterranean resort" , "French community" , "French port" , "French Riviera resort" .)
