Our services

Moorings

Torpoint Yachting Harbour offers secure moorings within the shelter of the Old Ballast Pond’s formidable stone walls. The naturally protected setting provides peace of mind in all conditions, making it an ideal base for both short stays and long-term berthing. With easy access to Plymouth Sound and beyond, our moorings combine safety, convenience, and a truly unique historic setting.

Dry Dock

Our dry dock facilities provide a practical solution for maintenance, inspection, and longer-term storage. Set within the harbour’s enclosed environment, boats are protected from exposure while out of the water, allowing owners and contractors to work efficiently and safely. Whether for routine upkeep or more involved works, the dry dock offers flexibility in a secure location.

Facilities

Torpoint Yachting Harbour provides essential facilities designed to support comfortable and hassle-free boating. From secure access and well-maintained pontoons to practical on-site amenities, everything is arranged to make time in the harbour straightforward and enjoyable. All facilities are thoughtfully integrated to respect the site’s historic character while meeting modern needs.

Courtesy Taxi Rib Service

Owners using Plymouth Moorings enjoy the use of our courtesy taxi RIB, free of charge, operating from 1st April to the end of October, seven days a week. This service allows you to travel to and from your boat without the need for a dinghy, making access simple, safe, and comfortable. For those who prefer to use their own dinghy, secure storage is available at the harbour.
