Castletown Harbour

Castletown is a heritage harbour with both outer and inner drying harbours. It serves as a hub for various maritime activities, including inshore fishing vessels, local and visiting pleasure craft, and occasional coasters (small cargo vessels).In the inner harbour, there is a narrow swing bridge that limits the size of cargo vessels that can be accommodated. The Umber Quay within the inner harbour has a maximum capacity for vessels measuring up to 55 meters in length, 8.2 meters in beam (width), and with a draft of up to 3.5 meters at MHWS or 2.6 meters at MHWN. Vessels that can take the hard ground may also be accommodated.Castletown Harbour provides essential services for these maritime activities while preserving its heritage character.
