Torquay Harbour - Launch & Recovery - dinghies being launched. Visit our Gallery.

We have a new slipway which is accessable at all states of the tide and is designed to be user friendly.  We also can offer you trailer parking along the quayside. (See charges below).  Please note that this faciltiy may be limited when a large maritme event is running at Torquay Harbour and the Harbour Master does have the right at any time to refuse the use of the slipway/quayside.

When approaching Beacon Quay by car to launch please drive up to the automatic barrier and press the intercom button on your right hand side and wait for a member of the Harbour Team to answer.  You will then be directed to the Harbour Office before you launch.

Please remeber that we do not provide car parking on the quayside.  However a public car park is situated directly behind the Harbour Office.

For daily launching charges please see the table below.  All charges, dues and fees are subject to the appropriate rate of Value Added Tax (17.5%) which is included in the price, except as indicated.
