Description
A soft HDR image of Town Harbour Torquay with the English Riviera Wheel in the background
Torquay Harbour lies on the North shore of Tor Bay and whilst benefiting from an expanding marine leisure industry, Torquay remains a fully commercial and busy Devonshire port.
Princess Pier to the West and Haldon Pier to the South, which is very much a working pier, form the main breakwaters and give shelter to the enclosed harbour facilities of Torquay harbour.
The outer harbour comprises of a 170 berth Town Dock pontoon facility. The inner harbour lies behind a cill and bridge, impounding the water at half tide level and is home to 170 moorings for boats up to 9 metres long. Access to the inner harbour is subject to tides, with entry via a bridge/cill which stops the inner harbour from drying out at low water.
