Can I book a mooring for Dartmouth Regatta
This is one of our most frequently asked questions. Unfortunately, we do not accept bookings for visitor moorings at any time (unless it is an organised rally of more than 7 boats – see Events Organisation). All moorings are allocated on a first come first served basis as the boats arrive in the port.
Please call our river patrol on VHF Channel 11 (callsign DARTNAV).
Although the harbour will be busy, we are confident that a mooring will be found for you. Please note – vessels are likely to be rafted during busy times.
If your vessel is over 14 Metres please contact the Harbour Office before arrival to discuss your requirements.
Do you have winter moorings available?
Yes we do let some of our visitors and annual berths out for the winter. For more information, please see Winter Moorings
