Penzance Harbour

 

penzance harbour towards st michaels mountPenzance harbour is usually busy - it is used by local fishing vessels & the Isles of Scilly Steamship company who operate both a passenger ferry & a freight vessel.

The penzance dry dock & local marine engineering companies generate repair and fit out activity both in the dry dock & the floating harbour with ship & trawler repair & luxury yacht conversion.

During the season - visitors mooring buoys are laid off the harbour entrance where yachts can lay whilst awaiting the tide to enter the floating dock

Yacht moorings in the dock are subject to space availability so yachts may have to lay alongside a trawler or other working vessel, which adds to the interest of this very friendly and intimate port

Whilst we endeavour to keep this information up to date
PLEASE CHECK NAVIGATIONAL & SAFETY INFORMATION BEFORE ARRIVAL AT THE PORT
