MOORINGS
There are around 600 moorings in Langstone Harbour, providing an excellent and cost-effective way to keep your boat afloat and access the wider Solent.
Moorings within the Harbour are limited to designated areas and are priced according to their location and type.
Deep Water Moorings are arranged in zones relative to the Harbour pontoons at Eastney Point and Ferry Point. Zone 1 moorings are located less than half a mile from the pontoons, Zone 2 moorings are between half a mile and one mile from the pontoons, and Zone 3 moorings are more than one mile away.
In addition to deep water moorings, the Harbour Authority maintains a small number of Advanced Intertidal Moorings (AIMs). These modern moorings are located on the western side of the Harbour within Eastney Lake and are available to licence on an annual basis. All AIMs are maintained by the Harbour Authority, providing a secure and professionally managed intertidal mooring option.
Please Note: Traditional tidal mooring licences are no longer issued by the Harbour Authority. Historic tidal mooring licences may not be transferred to another person, including as part of the sale of a vessel. If a historic tidal mooring licence is surrendered, relinquished, or otherwise terminated, the licence will be permanently cancelled and the mooring will no longer be available for licensing.
