Newhaven Annual Berths - Drying?

[Foxglove]

Hi All - I'm considering taking an annual berth at Newhaven Marina. I have a draft of about 60cm. Can anyone tell me whether all the annual berths are accessible in any tide? Or do some of them dry out? Thanks in advance.

Hi & welcome to the forum,

Accessible in all weathers and all tides according to their web site...

Definitely dries out!

The berths get shallower as you go inshore. But you should ring them anyway, the last I heard they were full, mainly of windfarm boats.

Thanks, all. Yes, spoke to them this morning and apparently the (available) berths do all dry out. About an hour either side of LW at neaps. More during springs.

Looks like more than one Newhaven in the UK... The one pictured above isn't in Sussex, but does look much more interesting.

That one is on the Forth 'tween Granton and Leith.

If we are talking about Sussex..yes the staff are lovely, a pleasant change from the faceless, uniformed corporate robots in another Sussex marina.
