Eyemouth Harbour is a busy and industrious port situated at the heart of the attractive, cosmopolitan town of Eyemouth. Uniquely positioned on Scotland’s south-east coast, the harbour has long been a strategically important base and stopping-off point for all kinds of boats, businesses and people.

The largest and most secure harbour in the area and offer 24-hour lock-free access to a deep-water berthing facility. There is ready access to all essential services and supplies for fishing, leisure and commercial boats as you would expect from a busy working harbour. 

Boat repair and maintenance (Eyemouth Marine Ltd), marine engineers, maintenance yard, grid and slipway facilities, refuelling, storage and chandlery are all available around the quayside.

Cruise ships and larger vessels can anchor 2,000 metres away at Coldingham Bay ( at a depth of 15m) and use tenders into the landing pontoon. The harbour boasts modern facilities with the main quayside infrastructure and direct road access from the main A1 trunk road.

Eyemouth Harbour is actively pursuing opportunities for diversification into the offshore wind industry. It is ideally located, being close to a number of the North Sea’s offshore wind development sites, including Neart na Gaoithe and Seagreen.

To date, vessels operating in the Neart na Gaoithe offshore wind site have made use of the short sailing distance from Eyemouth for early survey work.
