A Personal Guide to The Ports of the Channel

Nicholas Hill

This site represents my own opinions and you are free to disagree with them!

The coverage of various ports and harbours is not intended to be comprehensive; all the various areas covered are given as links from the drop down menu at the top. They are all places I have visited.

Although I give navigational tips and waypoints, I give you the obligatory warning that you use these at your own peril - or your own discretion.

A pilot is really most use with charts and photos: I would like to include charts, but copyright precludes this. Aerial photos I find the most useful, so that I can relate the objects on the chart to their appearance in the photo. Google Earth has helped here - if you have it on your computer, then you will find a Google Earth reference to each harbour.

I have included slideshows of pictures for the harbours that I can: hold the mouse on the links above the picture, and you should see the picture change.

If you have any comments, or updates on the harbours, then please do contact me.

*** NEW! Google Earth! ***

Every harbour now has a link to Google Earth. Click on the link, and you will be asked to download a file with a kmz suffix. If you download this, then Google Earth will fire up, and then zoom to the harbour in question.

If you don't have Google Earth, then download it from here.
