 Amble : Profile
Amble Harbour Master
Tel:+44(0)1665 710306
Although owing its existence to the coalfields of Northumberland, today Amble is a lively fishing harbour specialising in prawn trawling. Bird watchers also favour this piece of coast with its wide variety of water fowl, including eider ducks.
The harbour provides good shelter, but the entrance can be dangerous in strong on-shore winds as the seas then break on the bar.
Access to the marina is restricted to about HW +/-4hrs. Visitors berth on ‘B’ pontoon. It is also possible that the Coquet yacht club may have a river mooring available.
