Shoreham

Shoreham is a busy working port (see below) and there are facilities for mooring angling boats within the Marina. There is one charter boat operating out of the port.

There are three main mooring areas at Shoreham – Lady Bee, Aldrington Quay and Nicholsons marina . Lady Bee Marina is just inside the Port’s main shipping canal and has 120 pontoon berths. The facilities available include water and electricity, shower block, chandlers, restaurant and bar and parking. Aldrington Quay is adjacent to the Hove Enterprise Centre business units and accommodation. There parking spaces, shower facilities, electricity and water on quayside within walking distance of Portslade railway station, buses and shopping centre. Finally Nicholson's Marina, lying east of the Texaco fuel terminal, provides pontoon berths for small commercial fishing vessels.

The fishing is varied and concentrates on wrecking and rough ground fishing. Shoreham Harbour and Beach are both popular with beach angler . Sadly the nearest tackle shop is in Hove but for more on the local angling contact Reg Philips at the South Coats Angling Club (details elsewhere on this page).

Shoreham Harbour is a working port which sees tons of cargo loaded and unloaded on a daily dbasis 365 days a year.

The Marina contains moorings for both anglers and sailing boats and many of the activities of the South Coast Angling Club are based at the marina.

While not as large or extensive as Brighton or eastbourne it still offers great mooring facilities.
