About Our Harbour
Yarmouth Harbour welcomes seafarers coming from other locations around the Solent, the South Coast and West Country, as well as from Ireland, the Channel Islands, France, Belgium, Holland, Germany, and Scandinavia.
Yarmouth’s proximity to The Needles and the English Channel makes it ideal for those entering or leaving the Solent.
