CORONAVIRUS / COVID-19 PANDEMIC UPDATE

Things are getting back to normal here, the main pier is open once again to the public and for parking. Parking is also available in the Seafield Road carpark as well as the hill near the Lifeboat Station.

The middle and short piers are closed to the public.

Also, the public launch facility using the slipway is closed until further notice.

Boat trips are running with limited numbers and the usual food and ice cream vendors are back on the harbour.

We ask all members of the public at all times to follow current Social Distancing guidlines and give other people as much space as they need.

Following recent guidlines on the reopening of places to the public after the Coronvirus/COVID-19 pandemic lockdown, North Sunderland Harbour Commissioners have decided to open up the harbour to the public once again on Saturday, 4th July 2020.

However, there are to be some changes. The long pier is to remain closed to the general public apart from persons booked to sail on sightseeing, diving or angling trips, harbour staff, harbour users and any contractors employed by them. This is to enable us to provide the maximum amount of Social Distancing space needed for those persons.

The car park on Seafield Road is open, parking is also available on the hill near the Lifeboat Station.

Boat trips will be running with limited numbers and the usual food and ice cream vendors will be back on the harbour.

We ask all members of the public at all times to follow current Social Distancing guidlines and give other people as much space as they need.
